What this means for your family

While the facility is physically beautiful and the therapy team is highly regarded, the recurring reports of neglect and unresponsive staff are critical red flags. If you choose to tour, do not be swayed by the modern building; instead, insist on seeing the staffing ratios for the specific unit your loved one would occupy and ask for a clear plan on how call lights are monitored.

Key Review Excerpts

My Mother is in there . She has Dementia and can't walk. I visited her this morning and when I walked into her room she was laying in urine and feces. This wasn't just from once, her sheet was stained and her pants were soaked.

Memory care family member · 2023☆☆☆☆

The physical therapy department is excellent. Regrettably, health care is sub par. They were supposed to check on my incisions, they said everything was fine, even though I was soaking wet with brown oozing fluids.

Rehab patient · 2023☆☆☆☆

The Therapist worked miracles and got her up and walking again after being bed bound and on the verge of entering hospice. They kept my husband and I informed of any changes and supported us through some very difficult decisions.
