A friend of ours has been here for months and they are absolutely great with him. And he needs alot of attention and care. My nieces mother recently became paralyzed from the neck down and was put in braintree, Massachusetts which is an absolute horror show non English speaking, theiving, neglect & abuse. When I had started to visit my male friend once he was transferred from the hospital and see the care I told my nieces mother and her family and started advocating for her to be moved there. She's currently on the waiting list. If you go in an walknthe halls most time management is in their office with their doors open. They are very kind an dont mind a knock on the door frame and being asked questions. You can take guest out for outtings. We've thrown my male friend a birthday party and they accommodated us with all our needs to make that happen. Obviously we provided the cake and gifts but they made the space & staff avaliable to make it a great day. :-)

I just visited my Dad there, he is in the rehabilitation unit. The employees were helpful, professional and polite. The place looked very clean and smelled fresh. He said he was being treated well and knows how to call for assistance. I have worked in nursing homes and a hospital for 39 years as a CNA , so I know what to look for and that’s why I am giving all employees a 5 star review. Thank you so much for taking care of my Dad! You are all appreciated.

We visited our sister in law Helen Pettit. Had a good short visit. Her husband, Bill Pettit, was our brother, who had lupus and a stroke victim who stayed with you for several years until his passing in Nov 2004. You are more crowded today. A very different place .

Please read reviews before putting your loved one into this facility. Some staff members were very nice. They are understaffed and it seemed like they were unreliable on weekends. It seemed like they came straggling in, whenever they pleased. My family member spent most of the day in a wheelchair. He ended up with a pressure sore. When we had questions regarding his care, we were told they would look into it. Things never improved or changed. The food was absolutely horrid. Those poor people. Someone from our family tried to visit every day, it was heartbreaking.
