PositiveThe most positive things were the extra care from the Administrative staff, especially when things rapidly declined with my mother. The communication was really good and they really took care of mom. The more negative thing that's stood out was that there is sometimes a break in communication between staff leads, nurses, medicine givers, and later hospice; and between daytime and evening staff.
Response from the communityThank you for your recommendation and for sharing your family's experience. We are honored to have cared for your mother and are grateful for your kind words about our administrative team and the support they provided during a difficult time. It is wonderful to hear that communication and compassionate care made a positive difference for your family. We also appreciate your feedback regarding communication between departments and shifts. We continually work to strengthen collaboration among care teams to ensure the best possible experience for residents and families. Thank you again for your trust and support.
