Residents and families report difficulty getting through by phone at times.
Several reviews describe frustration with communication, including long waits and calls that were transferred to unattended lines or not picked up. Others mention problems reaching rooms or being told phone lines were down. One reviewer also ties access to care needs to short staffing, saying residents had to call for help from their rooms.

Care quality ranges widely
Residents and families describe both compassionate care and serious lapses.
Some families praise the nursing and rehab teams for patience, reassurance, and keeping communication open when concerns come up. Others report opposite experiences, including accounts of inadequate health care, missed needs, and unsafe or neglectful treatment. Across reviews, residents’ outcomes and day-to-day experiences appear inconsistent, with multiple mentions of both helpful staff and major problems.

Cleanliness concerns come up often
Some families report cleanliness issues that raise safety concerns.
Positive reviews include comments that the facility is clean and organized, with praise for housekeeping. Negative reviews counter that with multiple mentions of being dirty, smelling of odor, and unsafe conditions, including reports of pests in rooms. Because both viewpoints appear in the reviews, cleanliness seems uneven depending on the time and situation.
