Not the typical nursing home / convalescent center the staff is friendly, there are no signs of abuse or neglect, and there is no stereotypical odor. It feels like a home with care not care home. this amazed me, While I only gave 4 stars please understand 5 is reserved for absolute perfection. and this place is the closest I have ever seen.

I know a 89 year old lady who is staying there. She says she pushes a button for service and it takes an hour for a response. She says she timed it. She needs assistance to use the restroom. Said she has fiddle in her pants due to having to wait so long. This is why I left 1 star and if I could leave a 0 I would! Do not put your family or friends here!
