Dining quality is mixed

Dining is a frequent topic, with residents describing both good meals and disappointing ones.

Some residents mention the food positively and say it can be good. Others describe specific meals that did not go over well, including dry or overcooked items and a less satisfying lunch experience. A few comments also suggest food quality can vary, even when residents expect a special meal.

Cleanliness and odors vary

Cleanliness reviews are inconsistent, including complaints about odors and rundown conditions.

Several reviewers describe the building as clean or note a well-kept facility. Others report noticeable smells in common areas and mention issues like carpets and lingering odor. There are also harsher comments about the facility looking dirty or run down, including references to cleanliness problems and maintenance concerns.

caveat 4 reviews mention this

Call response can be slow

Residents and families describe delays in getting help when they need it.

Some reviews criticize response times for call lights, including instances reported as taking close to an hour. Others add that phones may not be answered promptly, which adds to the sense of delay. A few comments connect these issues with neglect-related concerns, including missed or delayed attention.

PT and OT are a standout focus in multiple reviews, though not everyone reports consistent therapy.

Many reviewers mention rehab staff positively, including warm experiences with PT/OT and a “great rehab crew” feel. A few describe how therapy helped their recovery after injuries or surgeries.
