Others report hygiene and basic care problems, such as soiled bedding or rooms, and concerns about staff attention during visits. There are also claims about limited night staffing, difficulty using the call button in emergencies, and medication timing not being met.
Memory care is a focal point here, but reviews disagree on how well it matches residents’ needs.
One review directly praises it as a memory care facility, describing a tour experience and a caring, compassionate staff. Another review argues that some assisted-living residents were not appropriate for that setting and should have been placed in the dementia unit.
