This facility is fantastic! I had the pleasure of working here on contract for a short time and absolutely loved this place. The DON, Julie, is amazing and goes above and beyond for staff, residents and family! The administration was incredibly friendly and always willing to help out if need be wherever they could! The ladies in activities were amazing as well, taking the residents out whenever the weather was nice enough and always finding new and fun things for them to do. The staff I worked with were fantastic! The facility itself is very clean and open, and very accommodating. Overall, I would most definitely work here again, or even recommend families to check this place out. 10/10
