What this means for your family

While some families report that the memory care staff is caring and the food is good, there are deeply concerning reports of neglect regarding hygiene and wound care. If your loved one requires high-level assistance with mobility or feeding, you should specifically ask how the facility prevents bedsores and ensures regular hygiene care.

Key Review Excerpts

My brother has been in memory care there for about 1 year. He appears to be doing well and when I visited him, the staff appeared to be responsive and very caring.

Memory care family member · 2026★★★★

They let us in to see her for as long as they could after covid started. Wonderful caring staff and residents.

Deceased resident's family · 2021★★★★★

My Mother was here for 5 years in the dementia unit. She was ok as long as she could walk and feed herself. When she got to where she couldn't walk or feed herself she wasted away and developed bedsores, where they wouldnt turn her, one was 4" x 6".
