Staff quality is mixed
Residents and visitors describe staff as helpful at times, but also report rude and unprofessional experiences.
Many reviewers describe staff as kind, professional, and responsive, including nurses and administrators who explain or correct issues quickly. Several also say the staff helps with phone calls and packages, coordinates care well, and supports families throughout the stay. On the other hand, multiple reviews include serious complaints about unprofessional behavior, rude interactions, and staff not treating people respectfully.

Even among tour-style feedback, some note odors and floors that did not feel clean after leaving common areas.

Food quality divides residents
Food quality is a frequent point of disagreement between reviewers.
Some reviewers comment that the dining room looks appealing and bistro-like when visiting. Others are much more critical, describing lukewarm food and meals that are âgod awfulâ or otherwise disappointing. One resident also said the community struggled to handle a diabetic diet and that they had to manage intake on their own.

A handful of reviews describe issues with how medications are decided, carried out, or communicated, including claims that staff lacked autonomy in medicine decisions. Other reviewers describe being placed in a psychiatric setting, medication changes they did not agree with, or being pressured to take medication they said they did not need. Together, these accounts point to medication management as a recurring worry for the people who wrote the reviews.
