What this means for your family

While some families find the staff attentive and the management responsive to communication, there are alarming reports regarding resident wandering and a lack of dietary oversight for medical conditions. If your loved one requires strict diabetic or low-sodium meal planning, you should specifically audit their nutritional protocols and staffing levels during transitions.

Key Review Excerpts

I found staff to be attentive. They kept him clean, prepared him soft food diet, and worked hard to keep him mobile though he preferred to lay in bed.

Long-term resident's family · 2023★★★★★

The manager Hasmin was very responsive with communication needs, and went out of her way with the moving out process.

Long-term resident's family · 2023★★★★★

She is diabetic and they serve nothing but starch. I was there when dinner was mashed potatoes and gravy with crackers and a canned peach!
