Marketing staff are repeatedly praised for tours, answers, and follow-through.

Several reviewers describe low staffing that affected resident care and oversight.
A few reviews express serious concerns about staffing levels and supervision in the memory care wing. Reviewers mention situations like having only one caregiver on a shift for an entire unit, falls without family notification, and a decline in care they attribute to not having enough reliable help.
