Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community is commended for its exceptional care, with numerous reviews highlighting the staff's professionalism, warmth, and competence. Many patients appreciated the swift and personalized attention they received during their visits, whether it was for a routine vaccination or emergencies like a gallstone attack or the need for immediate surgery post-accident recovery. The staff's ability to make patients feel comfortable and cared for, even in stressful situations, is frequently mentioned. Notably, the facility's cleanliness, fragrance-free policy, and quick service have also received positive feedback, making patients' experiences as pleasant as possible under the circumstances.
However, not every experience was perfect. A few patients found the staff's demeanor less than satisfactory, describing interactions as rude. There was also an inconsistency mentioned in the level of service received, with one reviewer noting it could be a "hit or miss" experience, and an unusual practice of requesting urine samples for drug tests was brought up. Despite these few areas of concern, the positive aspects—like efficient treatment, caring for patients with unique needs such as dementia with exceptional warmth, and ensuring the well-being of non-verbal patients—significantly stand out. The community's ability to address patients' emergent needs quickly and effectively, alongside their emphasis on making everyone feel like a part of a caring community, truly makes a difference in the healthcare experience.
