Very friendly and attentive staff. The CNA Jaylene is, wonderful and caring. The nurse attending to my sister (South Wing) very friendly and informative. I feel at ease knowing that she is being well cared for during her recovery.

Very impressed! I walked in to visit residents on two occasions this week (my first time here) and I was struck by how clean and homey it is. Every person that saw me either smiled or asked to me if they could help me! 😊 Keep up the good work ⭐️
