What this means for your family

This facility is an excellent choice for those seeking a warm, family-oriented environment with highly communicative staff. However, if your loved one requires memory care, you should specifically investigate the staffing consistency and activity schedules in that wing, as some past reports indicate it may not receive the same level of attention as the main community.

From the moment we arrived for an initial tour, the staff treated us like family and assured me they would keep me informed. They have lived up to that commitment and continue to go above and beyond all of my expectations.
