My dad really needed more care than they could provide. I understood that. He was only there about few weeks - but it is a place that I would recommend to others.

★★★★★
CriticalIt is kind of hard to judge too much since our loved ones was only there for a couple of weeks.
★★★★★
CriticalThe language used by staff in front of the residence is not acceptable! One of the positives about this facility is my loved one has their own bathroom, we did not find that at other places we looked.
★★★★★
CriticalWe had our family member there a couple of years ago or so. Sometimes, services were great, but often, it was not. There was a lack of staff to actually help our loved one with what they needed. We wish them the best, but maybe they can improve with appropriate changes.
★★★★★
PositiveAt times my love one can be nothing less than challenging.Very rarely do they have anything positive to say so for this person to rave about the staff is amazing. They are friendly and personable and extremely patient. The food must be delicious because again from a person that complains about everything to say it's good it must be extremely good. The community offers lots of activities such as card playing.
