Key Review Excerpts

My father spent some of his final days at the Good Sam, and it breaks my heart to say this, but he was treated with neglect and a lack of basic human decency.

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

The independent living is amazing and such a close knit community. So much independence, but yet friends and neighbors right next door.

Independent living resident · 2021★★★★

This facility has concerning patterns with 58 deficiencies across multiple surveys, including one serious complaint from a family about resident abuse that was reported and corrected. The most recurring issues involve emergency preparedness planning, fire safety systems, and medication management problems that persist across multiple years. While all deficiencies show correction dates, the repeated patterns in emergency preparedness and safety systems suggest ongoing operational challenges that families should discuss during facility visits.
