Residents and their families say:

This community has garnered appreciation from both employees and family members of residents for its positive work environment and the committed care provided to its residents. Employees find the management and staff supportive and kind, creating a setting that is conducive to career growth and a fulfilling work experience. Teamwork appears to be a strong suit, with co-workers being helpful and appreciative. The residents and their families are consistently mentioned as a joy to work with, suggesting a compassionate and engaging atmosphere. Rehabilitation services are described as rewarding, especially when patients recover and can leave for their homes, highlighting a sense of pride among the staff in their work. The dedication of the staff towards the residents is often characterized as treating them like their own family, which significantly contributes to the sense of community and well-being within the facility.
However, there are a few recurrent criticisms that need attention. Notably, the issue regarding the infrequency of bathing for residents, with a specific request for more than twice a week, indicates a gap in personal care standards. Concerns about the medication management and professionalism of a couple of nurses have been raised, including a serious complaint involving misinformation and rudeness. These issues point towards a need for better training and possibly stricter oversight in nursing practices. Furthermore, issues related to hygiene, such as infrequent changing of sheets, along with communication breakdowns among staff and with the pharmacy, indicate areas where operational improvements could enhance the resident experience. Despite these setbacks, the facility is recognized for its nice staff and dedication to resident care, though some aspects of the infrastructure, like the dated condition of the facility and the poor state of the parking lot, have room for improvement.
