Residents and their families say:

This community receives notable praise for its strong commitment to providing quality care and creating a warm, family-like atmosphere. Visitors and staff alike commend the dedicated and compassionate nature of its employees, highlighting that every department works tirelessly to enhance the residents' daily lives. The facility's environment is consistently described as clean, friendly, and welcoming, with a special mention of the facility making a great effort to be more than just a Long-Term Care (LTC) facility by creating a homely space. The staff, including nurses and CNAs, are applauded for their caring attitude towards both residents and their families, ensuring that everyone is treated with dignity and respect, fully embodying the mission statement of "Dignity in Life."
However, it's noted that despite the positive feedback, there are mentions of past employees expressing unfavorable opinions, though this does not seem to be a widespread concern or directly impact the current sentiment towards the community. The mention of the community being pricey but good indicates a recognition of value despite the cost, with additional benefits such as free popcorn and ice cream for visitors, along with accommodating visiting hours adding to its appeal. Furthermore, the care, cleanliness, and quality of life promoted within this community, as well as the facility's capability to accept Medicaid/Medicare, foreground its dedication not just to the residents and their families but also to the well-being and appreciation of its staff members.
