Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has received praise for its cleanliness, helpful and friendly staff, and professional care provided to residents. Many reviewers have expressed satisfaction with the level of attention and care their loved ones received, noting that staff members were polite, helpful, and responsive to the needs of residents. The facility has also been commended for being welcoming and for maintaining a clean environment. Visitors and family members appreciated the facility's efforts in rehabilitation and long-term care, highlighting the positive impact on their loved ones' recovery and well-being. Special mention was made of the professional and accommodating nature of the staff, the clean and tidy surroundings, and the provision of private rooms for visits.
However, there are areas where improvements are sought. A recurring concern among some reviewers was the absence of telephones in patient rooms, which posed a challenge for residents wishing to communicate with family members, especially for those without access to cell phones. Additionally, one reviewer shared a less positive discharge experience, citing a lack of communication regarding extending insurance benefits for continued care needs and a delay in home care after discharge as significant shortcomings. Despite these concerns, the community's strong points, like the quality care, cleanliness, and overall friendly atmosphere, were frequently emphasized, suggesting a generally favorable impression among most reviewers.
