Critical

[Name Removed] was very knowledgable about the facility and elder care in general. The facility was rather dark, narrow halls as compared to other assisted living facilities. It could have been the weather, but it has a musty oder to it as well.

Fantastic Experience

My experience here has been wonderful. I was here to work hard to get my strength. The therapy program with [name removed] is amazing. I am standing and walking on my own. They really motivated me. My studio apartment is just what I needed. Everyone is so helpful.
