If Your Mom Can't Be Home, This is the Next Best Place
reviewed on: 05/17/2021 by Jen B.If you would call the staff would answer your questions, and they were friendly to the families. The food was good They had a lot of activities for the residents to choose from. The community was clean.
They Are Providing Basic Care
reviewed on: 04/05/2017 by AnonymousMy mom is transitioning okay. The location is good for her to get where she wants like the stores that are near by and she can use the public transportation. The services are somewhat limited but for what she needs it is basic enough. She is safe and living in a clean community. She is not too happy with the meals and would like fresh foods like fruit and vegetables.
Compassionate Care

Nice place, not secure enough
reviewed on: 08/23/2013 by WallaceIt wasn't too good, she walked all over the palce and she pulled the fire alarm, it wasn't secure enough for her. They were providng as best they could, the staff was real friendly and it seemed to be pretty clean. She jsut roamed all over the place and they were always chasing after her. Upstairs there was a door and she could have gone out there and gotten hurt, thankfully she didn't. She has dementia and they thought they would be able to care for her but she just kept giving them problems. It was a nice place but they weren't equipped to help her. If my mother didn't have the probelms she has with remembering things I'm sure they would have been a great place for her.
