Key Review Excerpts
“The food is cooked on the premises, not brought in from a service, and it’s quite good. They hired a new assistant director who appears to be on top of things, returns my calls and is always willing to help.”
“Staff dropped my mother and had the audacity to ask me to ask my mother to be nicer to them recovering from a stroke no sympathy just complaining and intimidation.”
“She's also been wearing the same clothes for 4 days now..I am so sad and desperately want to move”
