Staff here is friendly and nice always helpful. They have bingo twice a week door ice cream they bring ice cream to your doors. Lot of activities and activity room puzzles games. The nice courtyard outside with fish in the pond. If I ever have a question I can ask it and I'm always getting an answer might not be the same day but they do give me the answers to the questions I ask. They're very accommodating we get to go to Walmart once a month road trips. September they got to go to the fair. And plus they do walk-throughs with your family members so you get to see what really is and how it is here a lot of friendly people including the residents it's almost like family.
