My brother-in-law lived here for some years. He was very happy here. He enjoyed the staff and the activities. It was a good fit for him. They treated family well when we came for visits. Parking is available right alongside of the home. You can stay for the meal if you want.

I would give this place a negative 10 if I could. The Dr Tried giving my mom a medicine that she could not have with her current medications! It's in her paperwork and still prescribed this drug! Unbelievable and Pathetic.
