Key Review Excerpts

My mother came to this facility on Respite. she was only going to be there for 5 days. it took over an hour and a half to get a drink of water even though her room was right next to the nursing station.

Respite care family member · 2024☆☆☆☆

My husband developed bedsores that were not treated properly. He was neglected beyond belief. We begged them for help. We have photos showing the extent of the neglect.

Long-term resident's family · 2026☆☆☆☆

The nursing staff was very attentive to dad’s needs, the only thing he didn’t like was the food, lol. The Physical Therapist worked well to get dad up and moving.

33 complaint-triggered

Families filed numerous complaints triggering 42 of 75 deficiencies, with recurring problems in daily care assistance, medication management, and toileting/incontinence care. Most concerning are repeated violations for providing appropriate treatment according to care orders, which appeared in six recent complaints through January 2026, suggesting ongoing quality issues. While all deficiencies show correction dates, the persistent pattern of complaint-driven citations across multiple care areas warrants careful consideration during visits.
