Key Review Excerpts

My mother was a resident for three years at Crescent till her recent passing. They took excellent care of her right up to the end. I would not think twice about placing a loved one here.

Long-term resident's family · 2024★★★★★

The facility itself is older but it’s clean. The rooms are situated for two resident’s, with room to spare. The staff are wonderful and caring. They keep in contact with the family with any changes to the residents care etc.

Long-term resident's family · 2024★★★★★

Love love love Crescent Place! My mom lives here and enjoys the services that are offered. She has also made some friendships. Leaves me relaxed about how she is. They are very accommodating.

Crescent Health Care shows concerning patterns with families filing complaints that triggered safety inspections, particularly around preventing abuse and neglect. The facility repeatedly struggles with accident prevention, medication management, and fire safety issues across multiple surveys. While all 83 deficiencies show correction dates, the recurring nature of safety problems and complaint-driven investigations suggests ongoing challenges with maintaining consistent care standards that families should carefully consider.
