Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has garnered a wealth of positive feedback for its rehabilitation services, particularly praising its attentive and professional staff, the high standard of cleanliness, and its well-regarded physical and occupational therapy programs. Many reviews highlighted the caring nature of the staff, the facility's resort-like cleanliness, and the effectiveness of the therapy received, which encouraged former patients to return for outpatient services. The community was commended for its excellent care, professional staff in all areas, and for holding regular meetings to address care and questions, making it a preferred choice for many families seeking rehab services for their loved ones.
However, some concerns were raised regarding the administration of medication and response times to patient needs. A reviewer mentioned experiences with delays in receiving pain and anxiety medication upon arrival, instances of being given incorrect medications, and delays in assistance, notably when dealing with bedpans or needing help with mobility. This feedback suggests staffing or procedural issues that could impact patient care and comfort. Additionally, the response times to call lights and assistance requests were flagged as areas needing improvement, with one visitor reporting delays that could compromise safety for those in need of urgent help. Despite these criticisms, the community was still lauded for its overall rehabilitative care and environment.
