Key Review Excerpts

All the staff are so professional. I was so impressed with the care and kindness displayed to all the residents. It was a comfort to my heart to see the patience that was so evident from all the staff for each resident there.

Family member · 2019★★★★★

The cleanliness is great, but they always lost my grandmother's clothes, and she was wearing other and people's clothes too, my grandma had a stroke, and they didn't notice for two days, and on the third day they called the ambulance and she passed away two days later in the hospital from that stroke!

Family member · 2017★★☆☆☆

The workers have no credentials. A homeless person could apply there and take care of the elderly. There is no federal background check, drug test, or requirements.
