Key Review Excerpts
“One care giver in particular named LaLa always shows a tremendous about of compassion and patience. She is a really good person and is very professional. She makes my mom’s day every morning, I really appreciate all her hard work and care she gives to the residence.”
“Social worker Robin is caring, helpful and goes above and beyond in helping out resident's and their family. Even with difficult patients, she breaks the "ice" and supports them "where they are".”
“The floor staff I interacted with were great. However, the care plan that was in place was nothing I thought it was. Changes made were never discussed with me, nor the home facility.”
