I like this place! Staff is very nice and my aunt seems to enjoy their company. They take good care of her and I appreciate the home for calling my house when updates are due. The only recommendation I see is maybe have more cognitively engaging physical activities taking into consideration each patient's abilities. Add a new game each month like balloon volley or sitting hula hoop basketball with a balloon.
