Key Review Excerpts

Mira, the Memory Care Director, and her staff have been extremely helpful in helping my wife and I navigate this new and emotionally challenging experience. Mira is very in tune with Mom — she has taken the time to understand Mom’s personality and quirks to make Mom’s experience as comfortable as possible.

Memory care family member · 2026★★★★★

The facility is light, bright, open, and has a design conducive for memory care residents. On top of that the staff is caring, engaged and attentive. Residents participate in a variety of activities including outings on a regular basis. And the food was varied to keep meals interesting avoiding food fatigue.

New resident family member · 2025★★★★★

Ms. Doris Williams the coordinator on the Memory Care floor is a complete angel....she is up there on the floor doing whatever it takes to make things better for the clients as well as the caregivers...
