Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community is praised for providing excellent care to residents, with numerous positive mentions of the friendliness, efficiency, and professionalism of the staff. Reviewers have highlighted the community's clean environment, spacious living conditions, great food, and a wide array of activities for residents, ensuring they can be as busy or as quiet as they prefer. The commitment to respecting and improving the quality of life for residents, including special care units such as the Alzheimer’s ward, has been commended, and the presence of long-term employees was frequently noted as a sign of a well-run facility. A variety of entertainment and recreational activities, both within and outside the facility, are appreciated by residents and visitors alike.
Concerns were raised about understaffing issues, particularly during the pandemic, which has led to delays in service and overworked staff, potentially affecting care quality. Some reviews mentioned that necessary off-site treatments became more challenging due to increased costs and reduced transportation options. Feedback also touched on the need for more social workers and better use of funding to ensure patient care remains a top priority. While some individuals noted room for improvement in staff attentiveness and communication, these were less frequent concerns compared to the overall sentiment of satisfaction with the care provided.
