What this means for your family
This facility is highly regarded for its compassionate, family-oriented atmosphere and excellent activity programs. However, because one reviewer reported a serious incident regarding hygiene and responsiveness, you should specifically ask during your tour about their protocols for timely incontinence care and staff availability during shift changes.
