What recent reviews say

Families report deeply gratified recovery experiences, especially in physical and occupational therapy where named staff like the team, and the team consistently help residents regain independence. Social worker the team earns particular praise for her communication and advocacy across multiple reviews.

However, recent guests describe serious failures in meal delivery and patient monitoring that required emergency intervention, understaffing that leaves residents waiting hours for assistance, and deteriorating facility cleanliness and odor. One visitor of a long-term resident notes a marked decline under new administration, with staff visibly stressed and discouraged about management refusing to bring in temporary staffing support.

Praised for
  • attentive, compassionate nursing and therapy staff
  • skilled rehab teams help residents recover strength and independence
  • social workers bridge family and facility communication well
