Key Review Excerpts

They were great with my sister in law Barbara Sue until the end. They were compassionate and professional.

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

This is the most nasty place I've ever seen. They use surge protector to plug in the walls and tack it up over the door to the other side of the room. Didn't know wound care. Mold on the wall behind the bed.

Prospective family member · 2026☆☆☆☆

This facility has ongoing problems spanning three years, with families filing complaints that triggered investigations in 2023. The most concerning recurring issues involve care planning deficiencies appearing across all three surveys, resident rights violations including dignity and self-determination problems, and persistent fire safety problems with sprinkler systems and smoke doors. While all deficiencies show correction dates, the pattern of repeated violations in core care areas suggests systemic challenges that warrant careful consideration during any visit.
