Cleanliness is a mixed picture
Cleanliness reviews range from strong praise to serious concerns.
Some reviewers specifically mention that rooms and areas were clean and that masking and hygiene were handled carefully, including during the pandemic. Others describe problems like dirty rooms and bathrooms, cobwebs, and visible grime. A separate review also ties a difficult medical outcome to concerns about care quality, even while not directly saying it came from the facility.

Missed calls and delays happen
Several reviews describe delays or missed follow-through with requests.
While many residents speak positively about responsiveness, a recurring set of complaints points to difficulty reaching staff and slow follow-through. Reviewers describe waiting a long time for a nurse, having to call for scheduled medicine, and not getting help with requests like food or ice. There are also mentions that the situation improved after follow-up, suggesting consistency can vary by time and unit.
caveat2 reviews mention this
Serious care breakdowns are reported
A small number of reviews report severe care problems.
Two reviews describe outcomes that were frightening for families, including neglect concerns after a fall and a serious skin issue that required emergency treatment elsewhere. Another review reports a medical complication and states that linens and care needs were not handled as promptly as expected. These experiences are in sharp contrast to the many positive staff and therapy reviews, so it appears the experience may depend heavily on circumstances and staffing.
common2 reviews mention this
