Residents and their families say:

The majority of the reviews express positive sentiments regarding this community, particularly highlighting the staff's dedication and compassion. Many reviewers commend the staff for their exceptional care in the memory care unit, emphasizing their kindness and the tailored attention they provide to residents. One reviewer specifically mentions the positive experience with staff members who manage medication refills, appointments, and special accommodations, demonstrating a high level of personalized and attentive care. The day program is also praised for its appreciation and love for the facility, further underlining the supportive environment within the community.

Despite the overwhelmingly positive feedback, there are areas where the community needs improvement, as noted in some reviews. One concern raised involves communication issues between staff and residents, which seem to have affected the satisfaction of at least one resident. Another reviewer mentioned the delay in setting up necessary medical appointments, pointing out organizational challenges that may need attention. These remarks suggest that while staff dedication is evident, operational improvements could enhance the resident experience.

In summary, this community is recognized for its warm and welcoming atmosphere, as well as the professionalism and kindness of its staff. The design and setup of the facility also receive favorable comments, with references to its homelike feel and inviting environment. However, consistent communication and efficient handling of residents' appointments and needs are areas that could benefit from focus and improvement.
