Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has received a mix of feedback focusing mostly on the experiences one has in the emergency room (ER) and their rehabilitation services. With a special commendation for the rehabilitation services, the facility and its staff have been described as top-notch, with one reviewer feeling truly blessed for the care received during their rehabilitation, even going as far as to say they would award the facility 10 stars if possible. The attentiveness and kindness of the staff, especially towards patients and their families, have been highlighted as commendable traits. Specifically, nurses and some doctors received personal mentions for their exceptional care, with one nurse being described as awesome due to her ability to sympathize with patients, and another being praised for her kindness and attentiveness.
However, the reviews also suggest that the ER experience has been less satisfactory for some, with mentions of long wait times and a perception that the capacity for handling serious medical emergencies might be lacking. There were critical voices suggesting that for more severe emergencies, one might consider seeking care elsewhere. While some staff in the ER were described as friendly and nice, criticism was leveled at others, suggesting a variance in the quality of care received. Despite these criticisms, positive experiences in the ER were also noted, including fast and effective treatment for less severe cases. The consensus among these reflections points to a facility that shines in rehabilitation and certain aspects of patient care but has room for improvement in its emergency services and consistency in staff performance.
