This community has been praised for the kindness and attentiveness of its staff, who are noted for going above and beyond in their care for residents. Many reviewers have highlighted the clean and comfortable environment, the comprehensive rehabilitation services, and the plethora of activities available to residents, all contributing to a positive living experience. The administration's improvements, such as the new check-in procedures, have been well-received, showing a commitment to moving things in a positive direction. The community’s efforts to adapt to individual residents' needs, even when faced with communication barriers, have been appreciated. Moreover, the medical staff, including physicians and nurses, receive commendation for their professionalism and attentiveness.
However, there have been some concerns raised. Notably, a few reviewers mentioned issues with the rehab services being less extensive than expected, and there were specific grievances regarding administrative responsiveness and the suitability of donated clothing. Concerns regarding medication practices and the adequacy of nighttime staffing were also noted. While the positivity largely overshadows these problems, they suggest areas where the community could seek improvement.
