Don’t bring your loved ones here , they don’t fully change the residents , they low on supplies only uses one wipe to change someone , talks to the residents any kind of way , even move them any kind of way I wouldn’t want any of my loved ones in a nursing home like that . They are aware of everything that they’re doing wrong just don’t care .

My step Dad was a resident here until his recent passing. The Staff was friendly and polite. The facility was clean and whenever we visited we had a pleasant experience.

Do not send any of your loved ones here. This place first off smells of every human bodily fluid imaginable. Second the nurses absolutely could care less if any patient dies. They will take their sweet time at their slowest speed to get to a patient. When you call especially at the 3-4 ish in the morning they will.make lies about where the nurses are at and hang up if you proceed to call to much and bother them. I can go on about the many things I have seen wrong with this place. Don't let online photos and sweet voices fool you.
