What recent reviews say

Families report genuine warmth from care staff and satisfaction with memory care in particular, especially when residents receive individualized attention. However, multiple recent reviews document serious gaps: understaffing that leaves residents unbathed for weeks, medication errors, and residents confined to dark rooms or left in wheelchairs for hours without response. A recent four-year review notes positive early experiences derailed by leadership changes, with cleanliness and basic dignity slipping under new management. The facility's location near medical resources and advertised activity programs appeal to some, but recurring staffing complaints across multiple years suggest systemic challenges.
