Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has received a plethora of positive feedback from families of residents, who highlight the exceptional care and compassion displayed by the staff. Many reviewers noted the personal touch in care, especially appreciating the range of activities available including singing, reciting the Rosary, and pet visits, which greatly enhanced their loved ones' quality of life. The staff's professionalism and kindness were frequently commended, with special mentions of their efforts to update families and provide emotional support during challenging times, including end-of-life care. The clean and homelike setting of the facility was appreciated, along with the tailored rehabilitation services that significantly helped residents recover and improve their mobility and health. The dedication of the social work and nursing staff, along with the efforts to maintain a safe and secure environment, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, did not go unnoticed. The facility's approach to keeping families connected through video chats and scheduled visits, despite stringent COVID-19 restrictions, was also highly valued.
However, there were a few areas mentioned for improvement, with limited phone access for residents being a concern raised by more than one reviewer. The absence of phones in patient rooms created challenges for those unable to independently use a cell phone, leading to limited contact with families, despite the efforts to facilitate communication through activities aides. Despite these challenges, the positive experiences greatly outweigh the negatives, with families expressing gratitude for the significant progress their loved ones made during their stay, the attentive and personalized care provided, and the warm, welcoming atmosphere of the community that made it feel like a second home.
