Key Review Excerpts
“The caregivers at this facility are absolute angels! The compassion and care my mother and our family received has been invaluable. When my mom transitioned to hospice. Caregivers were coming in on their days off and staying extra hours(off the clock) to check on her.”
“It seems like they never clean her room. Now her bed isn't being made along with laundry issues. I have left a message with the executive director, Mike Schwartz twice and have not received a call back. Her room smells like urine and it's been this way for quite some time.”
“The staff is kind and welcoming to our needs and we have been able to mitigate issues without much disruption. Kristen and Hattie are both EXCEPTIONAL in participating with us to ensure comfort is maintained.”
