Key Review Excerpts

I feel they are top-notch & have already recommended them to a few people. It's clean, the staff is wonderful, the food is delicious, the PT/OT Department is the best ever & they have activities for the residents.

I am writing this to warn other families: Do not bring your loved ones here. My parents are currently residents, and the experience has been nothing short of a nightmare.
