Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has garnered high praise for its compassionate, caring, and professional staff, making residents feel like family and providing a level of care that comes highly recommended. The positive atmosphere is often highlighted, with clean facilities and an array of activities, including daily therapy, enjoyable events, and a beautiful courtyard, contributing to a pleasant living experience. Residents and visitors alike appreciate the tasty meals, the attentiveness to cleanliness, and the provision of services in understandable terms. The therapy teams, including physical, occupational, and respiratory therapists, receive special acknowledgment for their dedication to helping residents regain independence. Staff members across various departments are commended for their priority to resident care, attentiveness to concerns, and friendly demeanor. The community is described as a great place to work, with a strong sense of pride taken in the quality of care provided.
However, not all experiences were positive. One reviewer expressed dissatisfaction with what they perceived as an inattentive and unresponsive staff and criticized the facility for unnecessary charges related to doctors' appointments and physical therapy sessions they deemed unwarranted and unauthorized. Despite this isolated complaint, the overarching sentiment toward this community remains overwhelmingly positive, with its caring approach, clean environment, and engaging resident activities frequently applauded.
