Overall Review of Kingston Center

common 13 reviews mention this

Caring staff shows up most

Residents and families most often mention staff as kind and helpful.

Many reviews describe staff and management as friendly, welcoming, and caring, with several specifically calling out CNAs, nurses, and front-desk support. A few reviews also mention good communication and responsive help when interacting with caregivers. That said, other reviews describe the opposite—difficulty getting help or being greeted—which means day-to-day experiences can vary by shift and situation.

caveat 10 reviews mention this

Cleanliness is a mixed picture

Some residents’ families report serious cleanliness and odor concerns.

Alongside praise for a clean, well-kept building, multiple negative reviews focus on unpleasant odors and unclean conditions. Several also describe rooms as cluttered or “filthy,” and others mention smells like urine. Taken together, reviewers don’t consistently describe cleanliness in the same way, so it may depend on where and when you visit or stay.

caveat 8 reviews mention this

Nursing care draws strong complaints

Nursing and medical follow-through is where reviews diverge most.

Some residents and families praise nursing care as top notch or as providing good treatment, including help arranging transportation for appointments. Other reviews raise urgent safety and follow-through concerns, including delays in responding to calls for help, missing or delayed tests, and medication or documentation problems. A few reviews go further, describing serious outcomes they attribute to care issues, which makes nursing reliability the biggest concern in the feedback.
