Key Review Excerpts

She is up & dressed and can't wait to see what activities are on for the day. She has gone from totally depressed to a social butterfly.

Family member of resident · 2023★★★★★

My sister has been a resident at Chautauqua for several years & I have been very pleased with the kindness & care she has received. All through Covid-19 the staff went above & beyond with setting up window visits & when appropriate patio visits so I could see my sister.

Memory care family member · 2022★★★★★

Every person we met was kind, caring and compassionate. This was across the board from ALL the departments. I would list them all but someone would get left out.

This facility has a concerning pattern of recurring deficiencies across multiple surveys, particularly in infection control (cited in all three surveys), resident care planning, and quality of care issues like pressure ulcer prevention and accident hazards. While all violations have correction dates, the repetition of problems suggests ongoing challenges with maintaining standards. One family filed a complaint about infection control practices, highlighting real-world concerns about care quality and safety protocols.
