Key Review Excerpts

From the start they took great care of me and looked after and checked up on me. When I needed help they came. And if I was upset they listened.

Rehab patient · 2021★★★★★

My mother is neglected and the food they serve them I wouldn’t feed a stray animal. They do not respond to her call button and that’s only when it’s available for her to use.

This facility has ongoing concerns with families filing multiple complaints, leading to 15 complaint-triggered deficiencies over recent years. The most recurring issues involve resident care planning and assessments, medication management, and infection control practices. While all cited deficiencies show correction dates, the pattern of repeated problems in core care areas—including pressure ulcer care appearing in both complaint and routine surveys—suggests persistent quality challenges that warrant careful consideration during any visit.
