Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community is praised for its dedicated staff, comprehensive care, and especially their expertise in managing dementia and Alzheimer's patients. Many reviews note the long-term commitment of the team and their deep care for residents, highlighting the quality care provided to both residents and their families. The community's renovations have kept the facility up-to-date, ensuring a comfortable and supportive environment. The admission process is described as easy, and the staff—ranging from caregivers to administrative personnel—are recognized for their professionalism and compassionate approach.
However, there are some concerns regarding communication and staff responsiveness, with one reviewer pointing out difficulties in getting clear information and reaching staff via phone. Despite this, the positive aspects, such as the community's specialized programs including a unique Brain Injury program and the noteworthy efforts in maintaining a sanitary environment during COVID, stand out. The sense of family orientation and support for staff and residents alike, as well as the recognition of the staff's dedication to their roles, contributes to a sense of trust and appreciation from the families involved.
