food is horrible. they still your clothes

The food is horrible for what they pay. they say the residents need 14 sets of clothes and the staff steals the nice clothing. don't take anything that has value, or it go missing. I talked to management and was made out as a Lier. i had to take pictures of everything and they wouldn't pay for stolen it. if they know who reported them, they will kick out the resident. The food is unfit. spaghetti without sauce. I take good every day to my uncle. Hès still hungry after a meal because they don't give enough. He hates

I Couldn't Be Happier With The Care

I had toured a few different communities in the area and none of them gave me the feeling that I have with this community. My husband seems to be adjusting well other than the fact he wants more independence than what he has. The staff is wonderful they are friendly and caring they know all the residents by name. The community is nice looking inside and out. They have rocking chairs out front and a nice courtyard out back the residents and families can enjoy. The food is wonderful I have eaten here several times an

Care and concern

My mother in law moved into this community for a short time. She needed more then what we were aware of at the time. The staff were very nice and caring to her need. We liked the cleanliness. The food was very good and appealing. They did offer her activities for participation. We would recommend this community for families for care depending on the needs for a loved one.
