Residents and their families say:

This community has garnered positive feedback for its care, particularly from families of residents with dementia and Alzheimer's. Many reviewers praise the cleanliness of the facility and the happiness of the residents, noting that the hardworking and dedicated staff go above and beyond in their roles. The activities department receives special mention for its success in keeping residents entertained and facilitating family visits, even during the challenging times presented by COVID-19. Families have found peace and satisfaction in the decision to place their loved ones in this community, attesting to the quality care and compassionate environment that has had a significant positive impact on their loved ones' well-being.
Despite the overall positivity, there are hints at some challenges, notably the rough period experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic, which seems to be a universal issue rather than specific to this facility. The communication efforts during this time, though commendable, indicate the strain that the pandemic placed on residents, their families, and the staff. On a brighter note, the specific mention of a unit dedicated to Alzheimer's care has been positively highlighted, showcasing the community's specialized approach to handling such sensitive conditions. This specialization, combined with a caring staff that even family members of the residents and some long-term employees refer to as a second family, underscores the community's commitment to creating a supportive and loving environment for its residents.
