What this means for your family

While the facility has a history of strong, caring staff and effective rehabilitation services, recent reviews suggest a decline in administrative consistency and a shift away from the family-oriented culture it once held. When touring, we recommend asking specifically about current staff retention and how management addresses concerns regarding facility maintenance and family communication.
