The wound care team is exceptional. They go above and beyond for my Mom and in the past year have been the first team to make her wound smaller. The whole staff are pretty awesome and are very accommodating. Just FYI the parking is very limited

CCC took care of my longtime neighbor in his last few months. Everyone was super nice. My neighbow was happy there. I was always updated and saw great care throughout. Jack is an awesome nurse. Thank you CCC.

My family loves this care center! Everyone is so friendly and competent. We just got done with a holiday lunch put on out on the patio. Beautifully set tables, music, and holiday hats for everyone. My 90 year old dad is very well taken care of at The Community Care Center. Our family is very grateful.

Do NOT send your loved one here. All we wanted for our loved one was a place where she would be comfortable and cared for; she received neither. There was little to no interaction by staff with her during the day, zero communication with us unless it was initiated by us, no doctor oversight of her care. The conditions at the center are horrendous: uneaten meal trays left all day, floors were consistently dirty, bed and clothing left soiled, an unpleasant odor upon entry, and on multiple occasions medication was found on the floor. But the biggest concern is the lack of care. My loved one was brought to an outside doctor appointment UNATTENDED despite us being told on two different occasions that she would be accompanied by a CNA. She had documented cognitive impairments that would require her to have someone with her. She wandered from the doctor's office and was found on the ground unattended. She ended up in the hospital and then passing away. PLEASE let this be a warning to a loved one's family and do not bring them here.

So my grandmother has been here for almost a month at the time of writing and I feel like it is time to post a review about this place. To start off: The staff are pretty friendly people, they are compassionate and seem caring for the family & patients (especially elderly). Food is just your typical nursing home food, nothing special or anything, they serve 3 meals a day and everyday is a different meal, and they also do dietary accommodations. Entertainment wise TVs are honestly pretty small which I think is weird but it’s not a complaint, they also have daily activities which I think is pretty cool. There’s a call button board right by my grandmas room which is REALLY loud and honestly seems like it can get really annoying especially for patients trying to sleep. Rooms are a little old and may be a bit dirty depending on the patient, rooms are also shared meaning that you or a family member may have/get a roommate. In Conclusion: It’s a good nursing home, there’s definitely a few things here and there that could be changed but care-wise it seems pretty good, but it’s only been close to a month so far so things may change in the future.
