Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has received a myriad of positive reviews from residents and their family members, highlighting the exceptional care and services provided. Many reviewers praised the cleanliness of the facility and the professionalism of the staff, from the therapy and administrative teams to housekeeping and dietary departments. The therapy department, in particular, was often mentioned for its effectiveness and the personalized approach to patient rehabilitation, successfully helping residents regain independence. The staff across various departments were commended for their caring nature, treating residents like family and ensuring their needs and preferences were attentively met. The sense of community and family-like atmosphere was a recurring theme, with staff members going above and beyond to create a welcoming and supportive environment.
However, not everything mentioned was positive. Concerns were raised about the impact of COVID-19 on the facility, including staffing shortages and the consequent strain on patient care. One reviewer specifically mentioned their family member not receiving timely treatments and experiencing issues with medication delivery, attributing these problems to the facility being understaffed during their initial experience. Despite these challenges, it was noted that the situation improved as staffing levels increased, and the administration was praised for its response to concerns, indicating a willingness to listen and adapt to improve resident care. While the positive comments far outweighed the negatives, the issues highlighted underline the importance of ongoing communication between the facility's management and the families of residents.
