This nursing home is in dire need of interior updating. Moreover, my husband and I stood outside for 20 minutes, waiting for someone to answer the call bell to visit a relative. The temperature was 98°F. A male nurse saw us standing near the exterior door waiting for someone to let us in, yet he didn't make an effort to allow us entrance into the building, nor did he inform anyone else that we were waiting to enter. The three stars are for the level of professionalism and care displayed by the nurse and two CNA's who greeted us and promptly addressed the concerns of my relative, after we were finally allowed to enter the building.

My Dad has pasted away and if I need a nursing home this is a very good place. Before my Dad passed on the staff sang gospel songs to welcome him into the other side. That's being perfect and very clean.

Been here before with family to check on some relatives... A lot of good workers here with right intentions. Still sad to see so many elderly people seemingly "stuck here" when own family members could still take them in instead of "dumping them off" here it appears... Otherwise the staff and people here are friendly but things can definitely be "improved".
