They seem to be really good. My Grandmother has been there since Jan when she had a stroke. She now needs full time care. At 90 she seems to be recovering well. The staff is very nice and on the spot with everything that is needed. The place is clean and does not smell like a nursing home. They have a nice property that is well maintained with trees, shrubs, grass and flowers.My grandmother really likes the food, 3 good sized meals a day.They are very welcoming to family coming to visit.As nursing care places go this one is pretty good.
This place is awful..they let my mom die .no one checked her when she was having problems breathing for 3 hrs. Do not take anyone there.this place is old as hell..they don't care about anyone..at night they have people that have no idea how to take care of anyone..very young out of school people.management is awful liars.they will never admit they are wrong.. some many loved ones have died there
