Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has garnered a multitude of positive testimonials from visitors and family members of the residents, highlighting the professionalism, kindness, and dedication of the staff. Many reviewers praised the clean and upbeat environment, as well as the staff's ability to make both residents and visitors feel welcomed and cared for. The administrators were noted for their openness to communication and assistance with practical matters like Medicaid. Additionally, the effort put into maintaining high standards of cleanliness and creating a pleasant, homely atmosphere for the residents was frequently mentioned, alongside the appreciation for the quality of the food served.
Despite the overwhelming positivity, there were a few criticisms that emerged in multiple reviews, which indicate areas for improvement. Some visitors encountered issues with specific staff members or found certain practices, like the weaning off ventilators, not as aggressive as expected. Complaints about public bathroom cleanliness and occasional inattentiveness at the front desk were noted, underscoring the importance of maintaining consistent service quality across all areas of operation. However, these criticisms were few compared to the abundance of commendation regarding the staff's compassionate care, the cleanliness of the facility, and the overall positive impact on the residents' well-being.
This community, through its staff and amenities, appears to have a profoundly positive influence on the lives of its residents, providing a comforting and supportive environment. The specific mentions of the effectiveness of the rehabilitation services, the social worker's helpful presence, and the spaces provided for residents reflect a robust commitment to their health and happiness. While there is room for minor improvements, the prevailing sentiment among reviewers is one of gratitude and satisfaction with the care their loved ones receive.
