I took a Patient to this NH. I Gave this Place a 5, because The Staff was Friendly, everyone called the Pt by name as we entered the facility, n took them to their room. The Place was Clean, "And the Patient responded back eagerly" "So they must be a Careing Facility."

Lots of very nice loving people working here. Great CNAs nurses therapists maintenance personnel. A family member was there and was too often over medicated (sedated) which hindered these awesome people from being able properly perform effective rehabilitation procedures. It only takes one or two people to make the difference between 2stars and 5 stars. Most people working there are 5 star employees, and are God's gifts to the facility and community

My friend is a resident here. The staff is kind. They are carefully following CDC guidelines for masks, hand washing and standards of care. I would recommend this Geriatric & Dementia center for a loved one.
