    Review Summary

    The following is an AI generated summary of the reviews of the community from across the web.

    Truewood (formerly Canyon Creek) has received a mix of reviews from residents and their families. Many express gratitude for the caring and professional staff, highlighting the positive impact of the memory care unit and the overall environment, including delicious meals, fun activities, and the sense of community. The facility is praised for making residents feel at home, improving their quality of life, and fostering friendships among residents and staff.

    However, some reviews raise concerns about the facility's management and care standards. Issues such as understaffing, unresponsive management, and inadequate training for dealing with dementia patients have been mentioned. There are reports of neglect, abuse, and financial discrepancies that have left families feeling frustrated and disappointed.
