Terrible from Day one!

Left my non weight bearing mother on the toilet. Staff did not know how to transfer her, twisted her broke leg. Never emptied commode. Call light on for 45 mins to 1.5 hrs at a time. Rude. Uneducated and lazy staff. I have years of healthcare experience and this place was terrible!

wonderful place

The facility is located in a beautiful neighborhood with a view of the golf course. There are beautiful grounds that residents can walk . The staff is informative and helpful. The activities are wonderful. Outings and daily events go on. Snacks are provided daily including freshly made popcorn several times a day. The facility has a beautiful gift shop available to residents, visitors, and staff.
