Wonderful staff

Thoughtful and kind nursing staff. Willing to communicate my moms needs directly as her POC. They hold regular events to keep mom moving. I do wish that had more personal engagement and communication about housekeeping needs.

Highly Recommend

Staff is very friendly. Grounds are well maintained with beautiful flowers, trees, grass and a variety of plants. Laundry facilities for residents to use or pay for services to be done for them. Meals - set menu but there are always other options if you prefer something else. Serve staff is so friendly. One bedroom apartment is the perfect size with a living room, walk in closet and kitchenette. Variety of outings, crafts, games and exercise classes available every week.

Critical

My loved one has been home for a year. The main complaints were after the facility was bought out by another owner. Staff was cut, attitudes of some of the ones left- not always as attentive. The food went from good to lower style cafeteria. Originally when I was negotiating the entrance fees, it was mentioned.."I can't go any lower because we have to pay A Place For Mom. " I was surprised that was disclosed because you advertise that there's no fee. Unfortunately, we had to pick the least expensive place, so I gue

Beautiful Setting

It's one of those places you need to see. The well kept grounds create a peaceful outdoor setting for its residents. Absolutely recommend it. Mom says the staff is very kind too.
