    Review Summary

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

    The reviews for this senior living facility are mixed, with some highlighting serious concerns and others praising the care and environment. A number of reviews express dissatisfaction with the level of care provided, mentioning instances of neglect, such as residents not receiving timely assistance, being given inappropriate food or medication, and experiencing poor hygiene conditions. One review specifically mentions a disturbing lack of attention to a resident's basic needs, leading to a negative impact on their health.

    Conversely, several reviews offer a more positive perspective, noting the caring and loving nature of the staff towards residents. Some individuals, including a former intern and employees, commend the facility for its family-like atmosphere and the dedication of its staff to making residents feel at home. The efforts of the physical therapy team and the overall rehabilitation services receive specific praise from residents who have experienced significant improvements in their health and well-being during their stay.

    However, concerns about staffing levels, management practices, and the facility's adherence to policies and regulations are recurrent themes in the negative reviews. Complaints about the facility being understaffed, having a high turnover rate, and management being more focused on financial aspects rather than the quality of care are mentioned. Additionally, some reviews indicate a discrepancy between the facility's outward appearance and the actual care provided, suggesting that while it may seem appealing, the level of care does not meet expectations.

    It's also noted that the facility has undergone changes in administration and ownership, with some reviews indicating improvements in care and staff attitudes under new management. These changes have reportedly led to enhancements in the physical, occupational, and speech therapy programs, as well as overall resident satisfaction.

    In summary, while there are accounts of positive experiences and improvements under new management, potential residents and their families should carefully consider the mixed feedback and conduct thorough research, including visits and discussions with current residents and staff, before making a decision.
