The person I was scheduled to meet - Bailey Oliveras - was prompt and efficient. She escorted me to the resident I needed to visit, and accompanied the entire time. She was professional and engaging.

Nice place! Positive helpful staff. I think they need more support from the parent company and more training, communtication, and more staff., but everyone that helped my mom and my sister was amazing. Rita Cindy , Ashley, Donnie,Amy, Braylynn Beth, Bailey, Savanna and Michelle were all great. I just think they need Better communtication. But all the Activities and outings were awesome my mom and sister both loved them!

The siena‘s are very kind and helpful, and sincere when talking with my grandmother and myself. Never have to wait when asking for any kind of help. Her room is neat, clean as well as smells clean. The therapist our tentative to her needs when they work with her. Thank you all for taking good care of my sweet Grandmother while she strengthens her legs and work on balance. Overall not a bad place if would recommend this place for strengthening rehabilitation. I can’t wait to see the her mobility improvement at her next review
