Key Review Excerpts

My only concern is the frequent turnover of staff, including managers. It's a little disconcerting for Mom when the familiar faces disappear and are replaced with new ones.

Long-term resident's family · 2024★★★★

They're extremely understaffed, they led me to believe that they provided the level of care my father needed and they certainly did not.

Resident's family · 2024★★★★★

Inconsistent housekeeping- it took several weeks and 3 enquiries to get sheets changed weekly. Slow/ no response to voicemails and e-mails.
