Residents and their families say:

This community is warmly regarded as a nurturing environment that strongly emphasizes compassionate care and professionalism. Many positive comments highlight the cleanliness of the facility, the quality of the meals provided, and the exceptional care given by the nursing and rehabilitative staff. The sense of family and home that permeates the facility is frequently mentioned, with both staff and residents contributing to a loving atmosphere that makes residents feel comfortable and well-cared-for. The teamwork among nursing staff, CNAs, med aides, and administrative staff is praised for ensuring residents receive the best possible care. New residents and staff members alike report feeling welcomed and supported, quickly feeling at home in this community.
However, not all feedback is without reservations. While the vast majority of comments are overwhelmingly positive, there are mentions of concerns such as delays in cleaning up after incidents and a sometimes slow response from busy nurses. The dining experience for one resident fell below expectations, suggesting room for improvement in meal quality and selection, as well as the provision of basic condiments. Despite these isolated issues, the sense of improvement under new management and ownership is palpable, with many acknowledging significant positive changes in the ambiance, cleanliness, and overall operations of the facility.
In sum, this community is celebrated for its hardworking, compassionate staff and clean, welcoming environment. Residents and their families appreciate the professional and friendly care, with many expressing satisfaction and gratitude for the quality of service received. Although there are minor areas for improvement, such as quicker cleanups and enhanced dining experiences, the community's strengths in care, cleanliness, and a familial atmosphere are consistently acknowledged. These strong points, combined with a proactive approach to addressing any concerns, underscore the community's commitment to excellence and the well-being of its residents.
