Residents and their families say:

This community has received mixed reviews, focusing significantly on the positives mentioned by residents and their families. Many have praised the staff for their kindness and dedication, highlighting the hardworking, loyal nursing team that goes above and beyond in meeting residents' needs. Positive remarks also touched upon the friendly and courteous nature of the staff, the pleasure of dealing with the business office, and the nursing staff's remarkable balance of compassion and professionalism. The administration was noted for its immediate response to concerns, with some reviewers explicitly appreciating the community’s thorough communication during the COVID-19 emergency and commendable efforts to keep residents safe and comfortable.
However, some reviews pointed out areas needing improvement, such as consistency in meeting basic care needs and the quality and variety of food. Communication issues were a common concern, with difficulties in reaching staff and receiving consistent information highlighted by multiple reviewers. The stress and workload of nurses and aides during the COVID pandemic were acknowledged, with one reviewer suggesting that these conditions made it a less desirable place for their loved one. Despite these critiques, there are accounts of residents who have settled in well, appreciating the care they receive and preferring to stay in this community over others, indicating a sense of belonging and satisfaction with the overall care and environment provided.
