Key Review Excerpts
“The residents were mingling and laughing and talking, not at the other places. The cost is on the lower end of the local spectrum, the living areas are clean, beautifully decorated and brightly lit.”
“The staff are dedicated and understanding not just to my mother, but to me as I endure Mom slipping away.”
“Her room isn't cleaned well and her clothing and personal belongings disappear. The worst part is her nail care, which is zero! We are assured at every conference things will be better, but they are not.”
