The staff was friendly. The administrator was there and I was impressed with his love for residents. Seemingly it was a happy place and very clean

The staff at DHC have gone above and beyond to help my mother settle in and they have taken very good care of her . We all are very satisfied with cleanliness and the food is great along with excellent care for health and comfort. Thank you to the entire staff for making it feel like home .

Do not send your loved ones to this facility. They left my father on the toilet for over an hour several times. One instance a guest visiting their husband heard his screams and came and helped him. He developed a uti so severe he had to be placed back in the hospital all the while ignoring the blood in his urine. This facility is government funded abuse and should be investigated and shut down. One instance a nurse told him when he asked for assistance to go to the restroom, "I'm not throwing my back out so you can go to the bathroom".
