Key Review Excerpts
“Senior living without the institutional feel of long corridors, rows of patients, or stacks of staff. Each cottage offers a range of services that is delivered personally, without the hierarchy that stresses pecking order over service.”
“My mother in law is a new resident at GHL in Sheridan. I can’t say enough good things about the staff at GH. I know my MIL is safe and well taken care of.”
“Terrisa McClure who is a nurse on staff is a bully and the management is not taking it seriously. I have complained and it was swept under the rug.”
This facility meets both EveryPlace staffing reference benchmarks. Higher staffing is generally associated with stronger day-to-day care.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.

Original nursing home datasets
EveryPlace is a research directory. Facility information is compiled from public sources — Medicare.gov, state licensing portals, Google Places, and publicly available street-level imagery. Some summaries, interpretations, suggested questions, and pricing research are AI-generated or AI-assisted and may contain errors or omit important context. Listings do not constitute endorsement, recommendation, or advertisement, and we do not accept payment for placement. Families should verify all details directly with the facility and the original sources linked above before making any care decisions. See our Research Policy for our editorial standards, correction process, and image-removal policy.
