Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has garnered a mix of reviews that highlight the exemplary service and warmth of its staff, alongside some criticisms concerning staffing levels and specific incidents. Many reviews praise the community for its beautiful grounds and buildings, friendly and caring employees, and the variety of activities available to residents. The commendable efforts of the nursing and rehabilitation staff, alongside the variety of meal options, including vegan meals prepared on-site, contribute to the welcoming atmosphere many residents and visitors have felt. The personal touch added by staff members, such as remembering residents’ names and personal stories, appears to significantly enhance the sense of community and belonging. Instances of family-oriented activities, organized events, and the resort-like amenities including pools, hot tubs, and dining served restaurant-style, are frequently highlighted as positive aspects.
However, a few reviewers have pointed out concerns regarding staff attempts to gaslight a resident, medication management issues, and communication lapses, specifically pointing out one instance of lost personal items with no response to inquiries for resolution. Concerns about staff being overstretched have also been mentioned, alongside specific criticisms about the quality of food being just sufficient rather than exciting. Despite these issues, the comprehensive care spanning from skilled nursing to various rehabilitative therapies and the concerted effort to maintain a clean, well-maintained facility have been well-received. Residents and their families have expressed gratitude for the attention to detail in medical coordination, rehabilitation services, and the nurturing environment which has allowed for significant improvements in the conditions of some residents.
In summary, while the community shines in providing a warm, inviting, and well-maintained environment with a wide range of activities and care options, it also faces challenges related to staffing and specific instances of care management. The positive experiences largely stem from the tireless efforts of the staff to create a homely atmosphere, their dedication to resident care, and the overall quality of the facility and its amenities. These factors make the community a favored choice for many despite the areas highlighted for improvement.
