Key Review Excerpts

My mother broke her hip and needed rehab this facility had a bed available.. reluctantly I placed her here… I never review anything but this facility in the reviews doesn’t get the credit they deserve… Everyone was absolutely amazing.

Rehab patient's family · 2023★★★★★

It is under new management. My husband stayed for five weeks . The care was excellent. The staff were very helpful and pleasant. Meals were like home-cooked meals. The facility was very clean with no odors.

Long-term resident's family · 2022★★★★★

Since they are always understaffed-only had showers every 4 days. Food was terrible (inedible and gave food you specifically wrote that you would not eat).-and meals were not served at the same time each day.
