Key Review Excerpts

My father has been there just over a week but so far the staff has been so great. He has dementia a long with other challenging factors and can get confused and agitated. They have been handling his care with understanding.

Memory care family member · 2025★★★★★

Brother had therapy 1 time in the 4 visits I was there. Therapy is sitting in a recliner from 4:30/5ish, until? saw Speech therapist on 1 visit, brother stated he hadn't had therapy for 4 days.

Long-term resident's family · 2025☆☆☆☆

There are no phones for patients to use. No call buttons in the rooms except when the state comes for inspections. Patients need help they have to scream till someone comes.
