Key Review Excerpts
“My uncle was there & had a stroke. My mother and I visited him and told them he didn’t look well and was not himself and were not taken seriously. Thank God after approximately 6 days they call an ambulance.”
“The nurses are really great even though they’re really busy, the food looks beautiful and everything is always so clean. The view from my room and light helps me a lot.”
“My grandmother is very happy in this facility. She is receiving physical therapy and she goes to the activities. The nurses take good care of the patients and the staff communicates with the family.”

The facility has recurring problems with infection control (appearing in three separate surveys from 2019-2023) and fire safety systems, suggesting ongoing maintenance challenges.
