What this means for your family
While many families report a positive, clean environment with friendly staff, there is a recurring pattern of slow response times to call bells and inconsistent communication regarding medical needs. We strongly advise that you visit the facility at different times of the day—especially on weekends—and ask management specifically how they handle call bell response times and incident reporting for residents with dementia.

Key Review Excerpts
“Most of the nurses and aides are friendly but it takes no less than 45 minutes to answer a call bell. One night I rang the bell because I needed help getting out of bed and waited two hours for someone to help.”
“My Grandfather had to be placed in a nursing home as taking care of him at home became too much for my Grandmother. Unfortunately, due to how short-staffed this place is, my Grandmother still has to come three times a day regardless of the weather or her own health because if she doesn't no one will bother to make sure my Grandfather eats.”
“I was greeted immediately by the Administrator of Admission, who was helpful, friendly and very professional. The facility was clean, organized and well staffed.”
