Disgusting, truly. I had to walk out as soon as I went in this facility due to the overwhelming odor. Does not seem fit to house anyone, let alone those needing support.

If I'd give it no stars and Be able to Leave A Review I would. So far I'm disgusted. I am beside myself I went to see my mother that is there for 2 weeks for therapy. she was transfered last week and has never had a shower, nor has any of the CNAs/staff. She has Dementia and mobility issues, so she MUST have help & on top of that she's there for a Fractured pelvis and water on the brain leave her magazines, she feels so uncomfortable and concerned about her stuff in the room and her belongings she said people just walk in and out of her room and they'll just pick these up off her table and walk right out with them there's a lot of theft once again another unacceptable happenings, This is supposed to be a retirement home and if we would need help here's our lady staff there they did not w answer their phone and they liked me it's your cell phone no communication it told me that all the other phones are broken in the grams that's a we'll stop clearly from contacting them but I'm sorry I'm ranting & racing.. And please forgive the typos and the spellings I am talking to text and things might not come out the way they are ment.

My brother was well cared for by the staff here. He gained weight because Carlie encouraged him to eat every meal. He was never soiled when I visited. The wound care doctor is PHENOMENAL. Dr. Mazzella worked miracles! Scott, in case management is FANTASTIC!He saw to my brother's every need. John, Paul, and Marin in PT were awesome, as well as the speech therapist. My complaint is that management fired Paul and the Speech Therapist, and I felt it was a huge mistake in my brother's case. The facility is in MAJOR NEED of cleaning, painting and new furnishings. It really is bad. Christmas decorations were still on the walls in June! The care is amazing, but the building itself is depressing and not somewhere I would want to be for any length of stay. Overall, my brother improved greatly, thanks to the staff that were employed during his stay.
