Undecided at the moment. Have amy disabled elderly father here we are watching very closely to make sure that he is getting good care...... Update I now know that we are all screwed when we get to be our parents age! I liked most of the staff they were mostly nice to Dad but his health declined there majorly after a few months. We moved him to another facility that is not neglecting him and his health improved. If you are looking for a place for your loved ones DO YOUR HOMEWORK!! Check in on your people often is a must. The cost of care is insane and scary.

I don't recommend this place at all. My mother should not have been released to go home she still was not strong enough to go home. She really needed more therapy before being released. One of the people there even told me she tried to tell the doctor she wasn't ready and she would be back in hospital within a month. Welp it only took 2 weeks. I don't feel the person over her medical conditions she has were properly elevated. I was never contacted by the PA on anything. I am a person that asks questions and when I did ask the some of the nurses tried to answer or get me answers. They do not have enough nurses or nurse aids. The was terrible I witnessed and my mom and other patients made comments. Too long of time for anyone to come after she pushed her button, I witnessed and other patients said the same thing. House keeping was terrible. When she got the dirt a food behind and under night stands and they had wheels on them easy to move. My mom dropped a green skittles and I didn't pick it up on purpose to see how long it would take them to sweep it up 5 days is what it took. They don't have enough sheets and pillows or blankets. I know my mom could be difficult at times but that does excuse some of the treatment she received. I will let everyone and anyone know not to go to Sandpiper. I also have had some friends tell about their horrible experience that they had with their family members there. If I could have go no stars I would have, because mom is back square one again or maybe a little worse.

My brother and I recently visited our aunt at Sandpiper Health Care after not knowing her whereabouts for some time. Our aunt has always played a significant role in my life, especially after losing my mother in a car accident at age 20. She was instrumental in helping me understand our family history, and with her being the last heir to our family estate, it was important for us to reconnect. Upon our arrival, we shared hours of laughter and cherished memories, realizing how sharp and aware she is of her surroundings. Our aunt expressed her desire to ensure that her inheritance is protected, leading her to sign the heirship over to her nephew, who is an adopted member of our family. As for Sandpiper Health Care, we were pleasantly surprised by the warm welcome we received. The staff was incredibly supportive and the head nurse coordinator was detail-oriented, giving us peace of mind that our aunt is in a caring environment. We also appreciated the community aspect of the residence, where staff and other residents radiated positivity, laughter, and a familial atmosphere. It truly felt like a home away from home. We plan to return regularly, as we believe that our visits bring joy and memorable experiences for our aunt, reminding her of her past. Thank you, Sandpiper Health Care, for providing such a loving and nurturing environment for our aunt. We’re grateful for the care you offer and look forward to seeing everyone again soon.

Sandpiper is a great fit for my Mom. She is quite content here. She loves the food and care she receives. While she does not join in on the many scheduled activities, she does enjoy the interaction with the staff and residents. Many thanks!

I’m not one to write reviews but outstanding service deserves to be recognized. I have a relative fairly new at sandpiper. My wife and I spent quite a few hours there Fri night and again last night and although you hear horror stories about the graveyard crew, Erin the nurse is absolutely amazing! The patients there are constantly calling for her and she is constantly on the move but never appears even the slightest bit flustered and she’s so good to the patients. Even though she was busy doing a dozen different things, she had the courtesy to ask us if there was anything we needed such as a drink or a chair. I was blown away by her completely. It’s so nice to know that my aunt is receiving such exceptional care. I asked her what days she works so I know I don’t have to worry and her response was “You can expect the same quality service from every staff member we have.” I asked her how sandpiper manages to be so far above the other nursing homes and she said “management. We have exceptional management who truly care and won’t except anything less than the best care for each of our residents.” I hope she’s right but to be honest, I can’t imagine another nurse holding a candle to Erin. She’s hard working, caring, I could go on all night. Thank you sandpiper for taking the worry from me. I know we are in good hands. No better feeling.
