Food and Service

Living at McKay Creek is good, I like that they give a menu and we have a lot of food choices. Staff are gentle and they bend over backwards to help.

For the most part the staff is kind and helpful. The activity director will work hard to get out of doing any outings on simple activities. The food is very poorly prepared and about 50% not edible my sister spends a lot of her money on food.
