Key Review Excerpts

The therapy department got me moving again and the nurses and the aides were so kind and caring the administrator Riten was always there to help.

Rehab patient · 2025★★★★★

The nurses cared so much for Pop and made him feel very at home. Myself and my 2 sisters who were there visiting daily, saw so much compassion and kindness out of the staff there.

Long-term resident's family · 2025★★★★★

Medication dispensing was forgotten many times, she had to keep asking and reminding staff. Used latex gloves thrown around bathroom floor and at room entrance, 5 times in two weeks they had no milk for coffee or lunch.
