Key Review Excerpts
“I've been in a few nursing homes that is without a doubt the nicest one I have ever been in it was incredibly laid out the small apartments were fantastic that gave the Aunt Mary plenty a room for herself.”
“I have given QPRC a rating of "1" NOT because of their independent living apartments which are well-managed but because of the TREMENDOUS problems with infection control in their Skilled Nursing Facility, during the COVID-19 pandemic.”
“Very impressed with this nursing home. From the admission staff to the nursing staff they are top notch, caring, professional, dedicated people.”
