Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community is highly praised for its great care, cleanliness, and the hard work of its staff. Reviewers appreciate the welcoming atmosphere, with one noting the help they received at the entrance which facilitated their visit. The interaction between staff and residents, as well as with families, is frequently highlighted as refreshing and exceptional. Many have lauded the personal care their relatives received, mentioning rehabilitation successes and the professional, kind nature of the on-site therapists. Positive comments extend to the facility's social events, private dining offerings for family celebrations, and the overall cleanliness of the environment. Volunteers also find their experiences rewarding, especially when engaging with the residents in activities.
However, there are a few criticisms noted, including a wait time after pressing the call button and an initial rough adjustment period for one resident until their schedule and medical routine were properly established. The importance of communication with the staff to resolve issues quickly is also mentioned. Despite these minor complaints, the community is recommended for anyone needing skilled nursing care for their loved ones, with many reviewers stating they would gladly choose this facility again if needed. The food quality received mixed reviews, but when eaten in the dining room during the first serving, it tends to be hot and very good. Some suggested improvements include making the entrance doors handicap accessible to better accommodate all residents and visitors.
