The Summit receives a high volume of positive reviews praising its cleanliness, gated security, and friendly staff, particularly within the therapy and activity departments. However, there is a stark contrast in feedback, with several families reporting serious concerns regarding neglect, slow response times for call lights, and administrative issues involving financial mismanagement. Prospective families should weigh the facility's attractive environment and active social programming against these significant reports of inconsistent care and staff accountability.

Key Review Excerpts
“The therapy department is absolutely the BEST! The food is fresh, hot and filling! ! The nurses and CNAs have bent-over-backwards to see to her needs!”
“Huge improvement over the last year! Communication on my loved one is better, & the overall atmosphere & service.”
“When they ring for help, help sometimes comes hours later, and they have to sit in urine for hours. That is UNACCEPTABLE.”
