Key Review Excerpts

The PT/OT staff are excellent and know just how much he can endure. He has a very restrictive, specialized diet, and Dennis, the kitchen manager has been phenomenal, providing him with whatever he needs.

Long-term resident's family · 2024★★★★★

The facility has go... [truncated] My mother was released today around 4pm and at around 10pm went back to the hospital. As I was cleaning my mother today when she was using the restroom, she was bleeding as if she had her period.

Family member · 2023☆☆☆☆

The nurses and all of the physical and occupational therapists were definitely hands on. My score wasn't for them if it was they would be a 5. The social services Department definitely needs work.
