This facility should be ashamed for how they treated my grandparents today. They left them in human fieces all morning long. They did not take the time to care for them properly. This isn’t the first incident, we are constantly over there cleaning and caring for them. When you trust you are putting your loved ones in a space that they are cared for it’s a big decision. Time spent with your loved ones at this point should be enjoyable not a chore. Do better and care for these individuals properly.

Beautiful facility, wonderful staff and really friendly residents. The dining room is lovely with flowers on each table and folded cloth napkins. The food is served by a wait staff just like a restaurant and you have multiple choices, plus a salad/soup bar. Every person I talked to said they were very happy and all of their needs are being met.
