The nursing staff is very compassionate, I have been moved by how they have cared for my family. However I can believe how dangerous the parking lot and porch area of this nursing home days after snow/ice weather. There is still ice on porch and the parking desperately needs to be scraped! I have been all over the county this week and this parking lot is by far the worst for ice. Salt please!!!!!!! You have a faithful staff who have to deal with this every day!

This is one of the worst nursing homes ive ever been inside of. Its sad how down hill they have gone. They were the best back in the day but now they are the worst. I know I'll never put anyone i love in here and for the staff working there some were good but most just don't give a crap about the patients and its honestly so sad. I sure hope none of their loved ones ever get put in there. Who serves cold food 90 percent of the time. Its sad they get paid as much as they do by the residents and they have to eat cold food!

One star is too good for this place. I had my brother there for rehab. In the 2 weeks that he was there they never bathe him. They let him fall. Blood pressure dropped rapidly and he passed out. They never called 911 and they let him lay in his stool for over 10 hours at a time. He has sores on him and I went there and had to call 911 to get him help. I would not take a dog to this place so if you love your family, keep them away from this place
