I got here right after surgery and was in a lot of pain and they took vary good care of me. The staff made it feel like I was a a part of the family.
My friend just moved in two days ago and said that he is already having issues. He said that when he pushes the button to get assistance, it takes a half hour or more before a staff member shows up. He said that was typical so far. I am going to give him a monitoring device to record the time it takes to get a staff member to help him with anything. I will document the wait times for future reference and post them here in case it is useful for anyone else to see. When you think about it, a staff member should respond within a minute or two even if it is just to tell him it will be xx minutes before they can help him.
The staff is friendly and caring. The only thing is they could use more help in the late shift. Residents do have lots of activities.
My dad Hugh was there for 4 weeks January 9th thru February 6th, 2025. He was there after a pneumonia stay in the hospital. My dad is 94 years old and also had a recent hip surgery so they gave him really good physical therapy. The management team (Katie and Sara) are excellent and responded to mine and my sisters concerns in a positive and proactive way. The rooms are small and most of the time shared by another person but at this time they had a single one for him. He didn't like some foods but they then switched out to accommodate. Everyday nursing was okay some mix up with his meds but once management talked to them it was fine. Cleaning/laundry staff was very good and friendly. Transportation to and from hospital appointments and back to his regular memory care home was super helpful. Basically if you need something to go better with your loved ones care speak up, advocate in a kind way (especially to management) and things will be good. Emily Pettersen
Decent nursing staff. Pretty much bad everything else. Patient does not come first, of course profit margins do. Patients kicked out as soon as insurance stops paying. Rooms are bad, look more like a prison cell than a room. Hilariously small TVs you can hardly see. Nursing staff yells at you to wear a mask if you are a visitor even though it's not a clinic setting and everyone has had tons of time to get vaccinated. They will kick you out without a single care if you are ready for it or not based on insurance or how much money they are making. They have lost property, also they will yell at you for taking your loved ones out of the room. They treat it like a prison where you cannot take anyone out without consequences. Social work is a mess and have no idea how anything works nor will they fight with insurance for you. Overall very poor care.
