What this means for your family

This facility is well-regarded for its dedicated nursing staff and effective rehab programs, making it a strong candidate for recovery care. However, because the building is older with small rooms and reports of understaffing, we recommend touring the facility to ensure the space meets your needs and asking management directly about their current staffing ratios.

Key Review Excerpts

The staff, CNA'S, LPN'S, RN'S were stupendous! Were they understaffed and overworked yes but it never stopped them from taking care of my mom.

Long-term resident's family · 2023★★★★★

I only give it a 4 star because of Corporate. They are understaffed and overworked but those that work there work hard. My hubby is still there and so far he is treated kindly and they do their best to meet his needs.

Long-term resident's family · 2023★★★★

My father in law spent 3 weeks there after a very long hospital stay he recieved excellent care and rehab to get him strong enough to go home. Its an older building rooms are small however care was great.
