What this means for your family

Given the recent, serious reports of patient neglect and poor room conditions, we strongly advise families to conduct an unannounced visit to inspect the facility's cleanliness and observe staff-to-resident interactions. While some families have reported positive experiences with food and rehab, the recurring concerns regarding basic care and unprofessional conduct warrant extreme caution.

Key Review Excerpts

My 81-year-old father actually would have died if my family had not been present. The nurses here ignored him, neglected him by doing things like leaving his water across the room when he could not walk

Long-term resident's family · 2025☆☆☆☆

My mother loved the food and the excellent care that was given!

Resident's family member · 2026★★★★★

Father-in-law had a recent stay and was released early due to the excellent care. He also said the food was good.
