We moved my Mother from another facility after she fell again this week. The staff here is amazing. She was originally here for rehab but we are thinking this is the best place for her to reside.

They take great care of my mom. The facility is always clean and the staff are all so kind and helpful. The renovations they are doing have really made the facility looks so nice and feels like home.

They have only worked with my mom 4 of the 9 days so far she has been at this rehab facility. She has made little progress. I question how much time they are actually attempting to get her up and working with her to meet rehab goals.They don’t seem to treat her as someone who wants to walk again. I will make some serious inquiries to understand how the are working with her. If they are understaffed as I have heard is an excuse, then they should reduce the amount of patients.

From the front desk to maintenance the quality and kindness of the people is something you feel. Walking in cold from a hospital is a very uneasy experience. We felt welcomed from nurse one. The depth of information that was quickly gathered, from diet favorites to interests and life history and medical details that they already had … by the nursing staff, doctor, allied healthcare, social services, etc … , and even a couple residents, within the first 12 hours…. was really reassuring considering our late day arrival. It is a relief to be here after a surgery for rehab. It’s obvious they want to do a good job. It’s early in the game but I sense a non-corporate approach and a desire to connect. I don’t know for certain but most of the staff seem seasoned and pretty happy. One has to ask themselves do I want a slick environment or do I want good care? Good care is number one for us. Love seeing the staff gathered round for updates at shift changes; on their feet and paying attention at the nurses stations. It’s the behind curtain action right there out in the open. I would replace the mattress it’s a bit firm and the overhead light was stuck on ( they’re addressing that ) but a review wouldn’t be real without some suggestion of improvement! I will update as time goes on. Appreciate the staff a lot!!
