Absolutely the WORST place ever for your loved one. While the nursing staff is awesome, I have never in my life seen social workers that just plain suck. They are rude and don’t help the family with things that they should. Meanwhile family is doing their best to find placement. They are told she has to be out in 48 hours. And there therapy is just as bad as the social workers.

My mother, Alma O’Donnell, was a resident there for a short period of time. The staff is so caring, kind and compassionate. They treated her as if she was their grandmother. I am so happy we chose senior care for our mother.

Beautiful facility. Dinner room is nice and clean. Staff is very friendly and helpful. New TV in the dinning room. Lots of activities on the calendar. It was nice to see the bus full of residents going to look at Christmas lights.
