The staff is very helpful, attentive and supportive of residence needs and very easy to communicate with. Their admissions coordinator is very effective and will guide you through the admissions process whether it’s private pay or Medicaid pending. The director of nursing is wonderful and has many years of experience in long-term care which is very reassuring. The social worker has been so helpful when it comes to discharge planning or care plan meetings that we have had. The memory care unit staff are amazing. We all love, Miss Patty. I would definitely recommend this building whether it’s for long-term care or skilled nursing rehab rehabilitation. It’s conveniently located in the medical center, which makes it easily accessible

My mom has been a resident in this facility for a year and a half after being in an unacceptable facility. Some things to remember when evaluating a facility: Are you concerning yourself with facility visual aesthetics or care? Smells happen. Are they resolved? Is your loved one clean and well groomed? Are there visible signs of mistreatment? Is the nursing and physician staff cooperative? Does the staff turnover produce improved results? Do you visit often? If your loved one is in Skilled nursing care, you have exhausted other options and life will be changing for your loved one and your family. No facility will be perfect, nor will they do things exactly as you would do them. What you are looking for is dignity for your loved one, quality care, ease of dealing with staff and problem resolution. I have been impressed by the level of attention and quality care my mother has received at this facility. They understand it's not just the resident who is affected by the situation but the family, as well. Patty is a god-send! Hopee is a god-send! The janitor... the food servers... the business staff, Maria... they all work hard to make this place respectful and positive for a difficult situation. I can't offer enough thanks to the wonderful staff who has helped our family transition through this difficult time. I could not do the jobs they do and appreciate each and every one of them and their can-do demeanors. "Thank you for the hand holds, patience and understanding. Thank you for walking with us through this valley, staying with us through the challenges and uncertainty and allowing us the grace to make peace with the finality of the reality." It's been difficult, but you ALL have made the difference. Words don't do justice, but I thank you, nonetheless.

The Director of Nurses is a great leader, she knows her residents and staff, and handles this nursing home like her own family lives there. Anyone would be lucky to have Cielo and her team take care of thier loved one.
