Key Review Excerpts

Our uncle has been living at this facility for one year and we feel so fortunate to have found it! It provides a safe community where Chinese-speaking elders feel comfortable - with healthy, familiar food, Chinese newspapers and games, exercise and other activities, a doctor that comes to see the residents, and more.

Resident's family member · 2022★★★★★

They help manage his diabetes with a special meal plan and the staff is very attentive. One day they noticed Dad was not his usual jovial self and recommended that he see his doctor.

Long-term resident's family · 2020★★★★★
