My mother in-law was there. We had a good experince,but the room was very cold, so she was cold the whole time she was there. Other than that it was great!

When I go in and visit I feel really welcomed by the staff. I really enjoy the backdrops and balloon bouquets that Kelli Tracy makes.

Debbie and her staff are wonderful. Loving care and patience as if they are caring for their own loved ones. So thankful for them at a time of such stress and sadness. They made this journey so much less painful.

I will give one star because it didn’t smell bad. I would give it zero stars for the unprofessional manner in which the staff conducts business. Multiple calls were left un returned ,many times ,to various family members in the process of trying to admit to the nursing home. When we quickly knew we had made a mistake by placing our loved ones there, comments were made to our loved ones making them feel guilty that their family had decided to move them to a different place. We are STILL waiting for a refund to be made for the time they had already paid for though they were only there a week. This has been about 6 weeks so far. The facility is shabby and essential equipment, such as the shower, are left broken and apparently there are no intentions to repair things as they break .The lunch I saw on my loved one’s plate was below what inmates are served. A thin slice of turkey LUNCH MEAT with congealed gravy. At the price point changed for care, the food should be much better. The day-to-day staff whom interacts with the patients were kind but overall this was a negative experience.
