We were asked to do some volunteer work with the staff and residents for international tattoo day! We were very excited to work them and give back to the community. The staff was amazing to work with and the facility was, clean and easy to work around. Some of the nicest people to work with and the way they cared about their residents is amazing. The residents told us so many great story’s and how well they treated with their care takers. We were so honored to be able to work with them and can’t wait to go back!

Pricey but worth the level of care you receive. We moved a family member and this place is so much nicer. The staff are friendly and the rooms are clean.

Nursing staff sent documents that were illegible and staff informed me they did not have time to go over a patient’s medication list over the phone when a patient was at the hospital I was working at.

This place is amazing! My father-in-law was there for 3 weeks in skilled therapy. His therapy was top notch and he progressed so well. The entire staff was so helpful and friendly, I can't even describe in a review how wonderful the entire experience was. They truly went above and beyond to help with his needs and to help us with other needs that they didn't have to by making so many phone calls for us and finding information we needed for after his stay was over. We were even given a business card and offered help to any questions or needs after we left. My father-in-law actually didn't want to leave and said he would like to stay if he could. This is the best facility I've ever seen (clean, no smells, smiling staff, smiling and interactive residents, the list goes on!).

I have visited this nursing home many times and interviewed some residents. Everyone seems very happy. They have the freedom to walk around and exercise. Two residents are over 100 years old. Others are in their 90s and don't look a day over 80. They look better than some 60 year olds, and are up and about and fully cognizant and mentally aware. Residents keep up on current events, are busy with activities, and--it wouldn't be unusual to see someone over 100 chatting away on a cell phone. Obviously the health care center is doing something right to let these ladies maintain the lifestyle they love.
