Key Review Excerpts
“The staff showed genuine compassion, and the administrative team was consistently responsive and supportive. Our mom didn’t speak English, but the diverse staff was patient and respectful in their interactions with her, which meant a lot to us.”
“After a near death accident which left our sister with a permanent brain injury, we searched for the perfect facility that would meet her physical, mental and social needs. Our family is beyond grateful for the exquisite care our sister is receiving from the nursing staff, the activities coordinators and especially Lynda Connelly”
“The facility was renovated in 2019; it offers a pleasant and welcoming front room where residents are able to lounge and watch television. There is a sun room that offers plenty of natural light, where the residents can sit and relax”
