Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has received a diverse range of feedback from visitors and residents alike, highlighting both commendations and areas for improvement. Many reviews praise the kindness, professionalism, and efficient care provided by the staff across different departments, including the ER, MRI techs, and various nursing and auxiliary teams. One particular review highlighted the exceptional care received at the ER during a vacation mishap, emphasizing the courtesy and excellent service that led to a high recommendation. Another reviewer appreciated the diligent and patient work of the MRI staff during their procedure. The Venetian's caregiving and activities teams were applauded for their dedication and kindness, especially toward residents and their families during the challenging times of COVID-19, ensuring residents stay engaged and families connected.
However, not all experiences shared were positive. One reviewer expressed dissatisfaction with the care received from a doctor in the ER, criticizing the lack of compassion and professionalism which negatively impacted their confidence in the care provided. Another account mentioned an unfavorable experience at a walk-in clinic, awaiting service for an extended period and receiving a less than satisfactory response when inquiring about the wait time. Additionally, one concern raised was the need for more nurses and aides to prevent overworking the current commendable staff, emphasizing the importance of maintaining a happy and sustainable working environment for the sake of both employees and residents. Despite these criticisms, the overarching sentiment reflects a community with a strong potential for providing outstanding care and support, marred only by instances of individual dissatisfaction and calls for operational improvement.
