Key Review Excerpts

The facility had a smell and looked COMPLETELY RUN DOWN AND DIRTY. You barely saw workers, they were never in high spirits, and the food looked like MUSH.

Long-term resident's family · 2025☆☆☆☆

My family member wore a dirty diaper all night because no one showed up for their shift new years night and this happens all the time.

Long-term resident's family · 2025☆☆☆☆

Management and staff are caring and thoughtful. Although this center is not perfect, the competency of the staff is great.
