The term I can use to best describe the facility, the residents and the staff is "Shiny!" Facility is immaculate, people are warm and friendly and the cookies were superb!

Our family's experience

They've experienced a lot of turnover. That being said, the staff who work directly with the clients are very sweet and I believe do their best. I've never questioned that. We've struggled mightily with the admin team, not a lot I can promote there. Cleanliness. I would say it meets expectations with a caveat. Included in my loved one’s costs is a weekly cleaning. Several instances where that hasn't happened with no communication, and when we follow up, it's never clear as to if or when the make-up will occur. It

Location was a key factor (close to friends). On site staff, including nurse and visiting doctor is important. The facility age and cleanliness is important. Outdoor options along with daily and weekly programs are also essential.
