Key Review Excerpts
“Deja’s quick thinking saved our mom’s life when she had her stroke. So many thanks to all the staff that cared for her!”
“My grandpa was moved to Commonwealth's memory care floor after having a bad experience at another facility in GR. It is such a breath of fresh air to come in every time and see a clean space, with happy people, and kind staff who are actively engaged with the residents.”
“I could list many gaps in what was promised vs what was delivered, but some of the main issues involved slow response times, lack of nurses and CNAs, and poor quality of food. Mistakes were made with medications.”
