This place is not nice for the patients, I think the workers are there, waiting for a better offer. The owners must really be trying to get the most for themselves and not invest in the patients, the help or business at all.

This facility has been absolutely amazing to my family. The staff has treated my father with such compassion and respect and have helped my siblings and I thru a very difficult time. They've made this whole process easier and continue to be there for all of us in every way possible. I can't thank them enough for their kindness and patience! Forever grateful!

My elderly auntie has been a resident at this facility for the last several months for long term care. I can’t be more pleased with the facility and the staff. We had visited other locations before settling on this one. From the moment we walked in, it just felt homier than others, and everything was clean. There is a language barrier with her, and so I was extremely worried that would be an issue; however, the staff has been great in dealing with the circumstances surrounding that. Communication is very important to me, and the staff has done an excellent job in keeping me updated on everything while she’s in their care. I highly recommend this facility to others, should the time come too when you need the help.

At the moment I am disgusted with this facility! A friend was admitted yesterday as, I believe a Hospice patient, my husband went to check on him today to make sure he is comfortable. Well, he was still in the clothes he had on yesterday afternoon, including his hat!!!! Not blanket, the only thing they did for him is remove his shoes! This is not acceptable care! Not at all!! They had better get their act together soon or they will be having visitors from Elderly affairs and a news station!!
