What this means for your family

I recommend scheduling a tour to observe how staff interact with residents and explicitly asking management about their process for resolving resident grievances to ensure your loved one's voice will be heard.

Key Review Excerpts
“Patient, capable staff and excellent facilities. Recommend.”
“Staff attitude is bad. Staff say I refuse showers but they do not ask if I want them. Management believes the staff they did not even ask me my opinion because the staff say but I'm lying and that I caused tension between the shifts.”
