CriticalService needs to improve
Their actual staff to resident ratio in assisted living is about 1:18. And their response time to requests is annoyingly slow. Their weekend staff and management is iffy at best, with lots of call outs.

PositiveConvenient location
My family lives in South Charlotte and this location is very convenient for us to go to visit my Aunt [name removed]. She seems happy and has lived there for a few years. Her place is kept very tidy and the aides really seem to know when to help and when to let her do things independently
