What this means for your family
This facility is highly regarded for its warm, family-like atmosphere and a staff that appears deeply committed to resident comfort. However, because one reviewer reported serious issues with hygiene and emergency communication, you should specifically ask about their protocols for monitoring resident needs and how they notify families of medical changes.
