Key Review Excerpts

The CNAs have been fabulous and also therapy has been fabulous! Nursing has been helpful in addressing my concerns. For kitchen, there were some hiccups with meals but they have addressed concerns I've mentioned to them.

Rehab patient · 2025★★★★★

The admitting nurse, SueLee(?) on the first floor was mean and didn't comprehend anything we told her. My husband was not doing well on his first night; I asked her to call his doctor and she refused!

Long-term resident's family · 2018☆☆☆☆

My husband was there for 3 days. He fell twice and the facility expected us to provide around the clock supervision. We, as the family, were expected to contact an outside agency for a sitter or CNA.
