If it were possible to leave zero stars, I would. Unclean and poorly maintained. Dangerously low staffing numbers with very frequent turnover. Continual rate increases without required notification. Sadly, I don't know I've ever encountered a place where, to this extent, ownership and leadership literally couldn't care less.

Staff is loving and truly care about each and every resident. My goal as a nurse is to make sure all residents get the best care while feeling at home. Family oriented atmosphere! Love and hugs are given daily!
