I saw a review about “dangerous staff” and I can’t agree more. These are the CNA’s your loved ones are being left with. Be careful and choose somewhere else.

This place is criminal, no adequate nutrition- and same food on the menu every other day. DANGEROUS staffing. Expect your loved one to be neglected.

My sister loves it here. The staff is very good. She had the option of moving to a more expensive alternative and she chose to stay here.

Worst place ever!!!! My dad was there and after two days they forgot to feed him and when I told them they said the kitchen was closed and gave him a pb&j sandwich….. they put the commode by his bed. Set him on it and then the aid sat down in a chair staring at him while he had to poop!!!! His urinal would get full before they would empty it it. Went over 24 hrs with any pain meds after hip replacement surgery!!!!! If you have a family member there take them out and run!!!! My dad was only there for 5 days and it was the worst treatment he ever got!!!!!

They took very good care of my mom who suffered with Alzheimer’s. The facility is a little outdated, but don’t let that fool you. The staff is very knowledgeable and know how to care for dementia patients very well. I would recommend this facility to anyone.
