My father was a patient jere many years ago and received excellent care, which is why my uncle chose this facility I don't know what happened between then and now, but the care level has taken a nose dive. While at this facility my uncle fell and was laughed at by 2 of the employees. (I wish I knew who they were.) He sent me and other family and froends several messages about things that were occurring and then the messages stopped. He ended up being admitted into the hospital. When we got there to see about him, his phone was completely wiped of all phone numbers and apps. Please, please, please think twice before placing your loved one here. Be very careful who you entrust to care for them.

Don’t do it!! This place sucked!! Most of the aides doesn’t understand English. One maybe two aides really loved their jobs. My loved one caught a rash. The food., I wouldn’t give to a wandering animal. Best thing was the PT. And leaving that place.

I recently visited my uncle who is a patient there and I was totally surprised as to how clean the place was. They take good care of their patients and treat them with respect. The staff was also very friendly and welcoming and they made sure that I was properly accommodated.
