Overall would recommend

Dad's getting used to new home. Participating in activities. Eating at least 2 out of 3 meals (probably still more than he ate when he lived alone). Staff is attentive though the response time when I contact is slow; better to address in person. Clean, care is good; dad just needs to have some patience.

Response from the community

Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re glad to hear your dad is getting involved in activities and settling in, and that you’ve found our team attentive and the care positive. We also appreciate your feedback about response times and will continue working to improve communication.

Have hope for less turn over and seeing signs of improvement.

If u visit often it can work. People are very nice and caring. It is not one on one which they tell you upfront. Both my parents are here and their needs differ. Difficult situation for staff which they have addressed better as they got to know them. My parents feel taken care of with my prompting staff of their needs.
