Key Review Excerpts
“The nursing care both of my family members receive(d) has been outstanding, the staff is professional, knowledgeable and seemingly tireless. They are always available to answer any questions I have and I always feel heard.”
“The consistent complaint is the food, although I have not tried it myself, the meals I have seen do not look all that appetizing. Over all my husband and I are happy to have such caring staff to take care of my mother in law.”
“If it was just the nursing staff and PT/OT I would give a 5 star review. They were all polite and pleasant. Always trying to make residents as comfortable as possible. The loss of 3 stars is solely at the hands of the staff doctor.”
