What this means for your family

The facility is highly regarded for its home-like environment and dedicated staff, particularly for end-of-life care. However, families should be aware of the recent public dispute involving a former employee and ensure they conduct a thorough in-person tour to assess staff-to-resident interactions for themselves.
