Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has received numerous positive remarks from visitors and family members of residents, highlighting the exceptional level of care, professionalism, and kindness exhibited by the staff across various departments. Many reviews commend the clean, efficient, and friendly environment, noting the significant attention to residents' needs and well-being. The staff's dedication to providing high-quality care and their compassionate approach are often mentioned, creating a supportive and pleasant atmosphere for both residents and their families. Activities and special events, such as Halloween celebrations, are cherished, adding to the community's lively and inclusive spirit.
However, there are areas where improvements are desired. One recurring point of feedback concerns the occasional use of agency (temporary) staff, which some believe can create inconsistency in patient care due to unfamiliarity with residents' unique needs. This reliance on temporary staff is noted to potentially overwhelm the permanent staff and affect the overall care quality. Additionally, there were isolated complaints about the food, mainly regarding the overcooked vegetables and errors in meal orders, and concerns about the facility's aesthetics, described by some as "bare bones" and lacking in luxury. Despite these criticisms, the prevailing sentiment is one of gratitude for the compassionate care provided, reflecting a strong community trust in the staff's capabilities and intentions.
