Generic

The owner relies heavily on repetitive, templated responses for both positive and negative reviews. While they attempt to personalize some responses with names, the core messaging is often a copy-paste of standard corporate statements.

Key Review Excerpts

The staff & nurses were amazing. Today marks 6 years since I lost my 43 year old brother to kidney failure. When they notified us my brother was passing they moved the other patient in his room to a different room so we could have privacy & the whole family could be with him.

Family member of deceased resident · 2017★★★★★

Tasha has been amazing in helping me through the process of transitioning my loved one into a nursing home. Since this was all new to me, she took the time to explain everything clearly and made me feel supported every step of the way.

New resident's family · 2026★★★★★

The same nurse that lied about the accurate time that she gave it to me. She would put down that she gave my medicine at like 3:00 pm when actually she gave it to me st 2:00 pm.

This facility has a concerning pattern of recurring deficiencies across multiple surveys, with families filing complaint reports that triggered investigations. The most frequent problem areas involve accident prevention and safety, medication management, and food safety/nutrition services. Issues with smoke barriers and fire safety systems have persisted across surveys, and while the facility reports correction dates for most deficiencies, the repeated nature of safety violations warrants careful consideration.
