What this means for your family

This facility shows a promising upward trend in care quality due to recent changes in leadership and increased staffing. However, because of documented past issues with medication administration and understaffing, you should specifically ask for their current medication error logs and observe staffing levels during evening and weekend shifts.

Key Review Excerpts

The team here is extremely helpful and caring. You can truly feel that they care for the residents and the staff.

Resident's family · 2025★★★★★

My MIL moved here to assisted living from CMH. We had a very difficult time getting the care she needed at the level she needed... He has made some positive changes in the past two months by hiring more caregivers and making sure protocol is followed.

Memory care family member · 2026★★★★

They did not give him all his medications, they did not give him the insulin that he needed. There was no nurse on duty, like there was supposed to be.
