Key Review Excerpts

The Center was clean and well maintained making it easier for us to trust leaving her in their care.

Memory care family member · 2025★★★★★

I leave messages, with no reply. Mom is there and at times, I need to talk to staff. I’ve asked for the Director of. Nursing, the Nurses desk, the administrator and never have they called me back.

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

She was not checked on daily we would find her not dressed only with a shirt on and a wet diaper no blankets , she fell out of bed.

The facility shows recurring problems across quality of care, care planning, and infection control that persist across multiple surveys from 2021 through 2024.
