Activities help people stay engaged

Residents describe a busy calendar that helps them connect.

Reviews often point to activities as a reason residents stay engaged and meet others.

Waiting list can be a hurdle

Residents considering a move should plan for a waiting period.

One review cautions about a lengthy waiting list, and another advises future families to plan ahead because a waiting list is always part of the process. This theme shows up as a constraint on timing rather than a critique of day-to-day care.
