Reviews

Residents and their families say:

This community has received a variety of reviews, with many highlighting the exceptional quality of the physical therapy and nursing staff. Several reviewers praised the facility for its attentive, kind, patient, and friendly staff, contributing to positive rehabilitation experiences for residents. The physical therapy services, in particular, were noted to be outstanding, helping residents recover from serious conditions like strokes and knee replacements, and encouraging return visits for additional care. The cleanliness of the facility and the accessibility and friendliness to visitors were additional positive points mentioned.
However, there were notable concerns regarding the administration of medication and the consistency of standard operating procedures, with one incident where medication intended for one resident was almost given to another due to a lack of proper checks. The quality of food received considerable criticism, described as being very poor by one reviewer. While these issues were significant for some, the overall impression from multiple reviews was of a facility that provided exceptional care and rehabilitation services, with staff members who are highly committed to the well-being of their residents. Negative feedback, when present, tended to focus on operational aspects rather than the quality of care itself.
