Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has garnered mixed reviews from family members of the residents, many of whom appreciate the efforts of the staff under challenging conditions, particularly during times of heightened health protocols due to COVID-19. The nursing and CNA staff are frequently described as patient, kind, and responsive, providing a level of care that made residents feel comfortable and supported. The social worker stood out for facilitating communication between residents and their families when visits were not possible, offering a much-needed bridge. Families also noted the effort to accommodate cultural preferences, such as providing access to specific TV channels and facilitating interaction among residents who speak the same language, which was particularly appreciated.
However, some reviews highlight concerns over staffing levels, suggesting that the quality of attention and responsiveness can vary, with evenings and shared room situations receiving less staff attention. A recurrent critique involves challenges in communication, with families feeling the need for more proactive and consistent updates about their loved ones, and some experiencing difficulty reaching staff by phone. The environment's upkeep, including issues with cleanliness and maintenance, was mentioned, alongside worries about the appropriateness of resident attire for medical appointments outside, hinting at oversight that could be attributed to staff shortages. These critiques suggest areas for potential improvement, particularly in communication consistency, staff-to-resident ratios, and facility upkeep, to enhance the caregiving experience further.
