The facility has always been very clean everytime we went to see my Dad. The staff, the case manager, nurses, nurse's aids and cafeteria workers were always very helpful and polite. They provided top-notch communication with me throughout my Dad's stay and always were very compassionate about assisting him. They were very good to my Dad. They all took very good care of my Dad and when he passed away we were provided a compassionate cart with cookies, coffee and waters. They prepared Dad for our family to see him before he was taken away. Thank you Sandstone staff.

My mom called this home for her last few years and I’m so glad she did! All the staff was so amazing! Everyone was so accommodating to her needs and wants.

My mom was a resident here for 4 years and she loved doing activities, she always said that was the best time of her day and anytime myself or my 2 sisters and brother could we would have the fun of participating in these many activities and mom loved it. I’d always hear the staff comment on how mom is always smiling and happy being here at the facility. I commend the staff on how caring and helpful they were to my mom during her entire time here. And the dedication and support they gave mom and our family when mom passed was so so appreciated and heartwarming. Thank you

My elderly mother has stayed here twice for transition care after hospital stays for about 5 weeks. My mother and our family were very please with the care of the staff. The place is clean and she liked the meals. We had an issue with a medication bill after she left and when I reached out to the administrator they were very helpful in resolving the matter.
