    Review Summary

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

    Many reviews highlight the exceptional care and support provided by Harbison Shores, particularly praising the staff's professionalism, kindness, and dedication to residents. Families have expressed gratitude for the smooth transition into the facility, the excellent medical staff, and the overall quality of care their loved ones receive, especially in the Memory Care unit. The community is described as beautiful, with recent renovations enhancing its appeal. The spacious apartments and availability of the staff have made residents and their families feel at home and well-cared for.

    However, not all experiences have been positive. Some reviews express concerns about communication and care standards, mentioning instances of unreturned calls and dissatisfaction with the management of care. One detailed account criticizes the facility for prioritizing profit over the well-being of residents, citing issues with medication management, staffing, and a perceived lack of genuine compassion from higher management levels.

    Despite these criticisms, many reviewers recommend Harbison Shores for its caring environment, clean facilities, and the sense of family and community it fosters. The recent management changes and renovations have been well-received, with particular praise for the improved Memory Care unit and the personal attention residents receive. The community's location, surrounded by retail stores and healthcare facilities, adds to its appeal for many families.

    In summary, while Harbison Shores has received overwhelmingly positive feedback for its staff, care quality, and facility environment, there are notable concerns that potential residents and their families may wish to consider. The majority of reviews, however, attest to a supportive, welcoming community that significantly enhances the lives of its residents.
