Care concerns: meds and call response
Some reviews raise concerns about medication handling and whether help was timely.
While many describe strong care, a recurring complaint is that residents didn’t receive support when needed. Multiple reviews mention medication problems or incorrect dosage, and others describe call light or emergency alert response issues. Some also report aides being inattentive during long stretches, which led families to intervene.
caveat2 reviews mention this
Cost can be difficult
Several reviewers flag affordability issues when comparing options or discussing billing.
One review describes a sharp increase in daily charges after an initial rehab period and details a request related to financial responsibility. Another notes the facility concept was appealing but “way out of range,” citing a monthly cost figure during a tour. Together, those accounts suggest pricing can be a deciding factor for families.
