What this means for your family

While the therapy department is frequently praised for helping patients regain independence, the facility struggles significantly with basic care for residents who cannot advocate for themselves. Families should be extremely cautious and perform daily check-ins, as multiple reports indicate that call buttons are ignored and hygiene needs are frequently overlooked.

Key Review Excerpts

The nursing staff is kind & attentive. The meals were awesome! If you didn’t like the meal they would cook you something else.

Rehab patient · 2023★★★★★

She was placed in a room with a bathroom that was so small she couldn't turn around with her walker. She fell twice in the bathroom, and we weren't notified the first time.

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

Had 15 medication errors. You must be with it enough to double check what they bring you. It was difficult to get a shower and my bed changed they said not enough staff.
