My husband has been here since Feb 1, 2026 up until this very day, this has been the first SNF Skilled Nursing Facility we have been too. At first I was afraid of all the stuffs I hear about at different facilities. But when he first came here there was a little bumps ahead but you have to just address it to the Staff to include Admissions, Charge Nurse, CNAs, Wound Nurse, Therapist, Dietitian's, Housekeeping and even the front desk. These people have dealt with every different medical issue that came to this facility. If you actually go into the facility and read on there bulletin boards all the acknowledgements Thanking the Staff than you will know. So far so Good I have not come across any odd or unusual happenings at this Facility. This I can tell you for sure because I come here everyday day, it may not be a five star hotel but the staff definitely treats you like Family and the treatments is Awesome and coming from a small island called Guam you will see the difference in the care and medical facility ❤️👍❤️🇬🇺
