Key Review Excerpts
“The therapists and nurses are top notch and take the time to get to know you and figure out how they can best help you. The CNAs are so hard working and professional.”
“The therapy team was perfect! They had her back on her feet, walking and navigating 13+ stairs in our home in under a month!”
“My mother lived here for four years, the last two of which were in the memory care unit. She had outstanding care and it was very easy for me to work with the staff regarding everything that concerned my mother’s well-being.”
This facility meets both EveryPlace staffing reference benchmarks. Higher staffing is generally associated with stronger day-to-day care.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.
