What this means for your family

Given the recent, severe reports regarding medication safety and facility cleanliness, we strongly advise conducting an unannounced tour to inspect the environment yourself. While long-term families once praised the staff, the current trend suggests a significant decline in operational standards that warrants extreme caution.

Key Review Excerpts

The staff is very pleasant and caring. They are quick to notify us of any problems and go out of their way to be helpful.

Long-term resident's family · 2017★★★★

Garbages all over the floor in hallways, I found my family members medication in their refrigerator which means no one is watching the poor elderly take their medications which is alarming

Family member · 2026☆☆☆☆

My friend loves it there. However, she was five minutes late for her meal and DIDNT GET A MEAL. UNACCEPTABLE!

Friend of resident · 2025★★☆☆☆
