Key Review Excerpts

I think the staff the nurses etc are very good to their patients. Father in law is a resident and likes it . Building is just older and could use a few updates.

Long-term resident's family · 2024★★★★

This is the best place. I have been here for 3 weeks for knee replacement rehabilitation and I received excellent care.

Rehab patient · 2018★★★★★

My 91 year old Grandmother who has severe neuropathy and wrest-less leg syndrome among other ailments was left sitting in a wheel chair at the nurses station overnight until the day shift came in a long.

This facility has ongoing compliance issues with families filing complaints that triggered investigations. The most recurring problems involve resident rights violations, emergency preparedness deficiencies, and care planning delays. While all deficiencies show correction dates, the pattern of repeated issues across multiple surveys (2022-2026) in resident rights and emergency preparedness suggests persistent operational challenges that families should discuss during visits.
