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

    Reviews of the senior living facility present a mixed picture, with some highlighting the dedication and care of the staff, while others express serious concerns about the quality of care and facility conditions.

    • Several reviewers praise the staff for going above and beyond, describing them as hardworking, caring, and knowledgeable. Specific staff members are mentioned for their exceptional care and positive attitude towards residents.
    • One detailed positive review mentions the excellent care received by a resident from nurses, CNA's, physical therapists, and occupational therapists, emphasizing the friendly and professional nature of the entire staff.
    • However, numerous reviews raise significant concerns, including missing personal items, inadequate hygiene care, poor facility maintenance, and instances of unprofessional behavior. Complaints about the facility include reports of roaches, unpleasant odors, and a lack of hot water for showers.
    • Communication issues are a recurring theme, with families struggling to get in touch with residents and complaints about the staff's responsiveness. One review mentions a serious HIPAA violation involving the mishandling of medical information.
    • Some reviews call for the facility to be investigated due to the alleged neglect and inadequate care, with one reviewer specifically mentioning a negative impact on their relative's health.
    • Food quality and staff shortages are also mentioned as areas of concern, with some staff reportedly struggling with English.
    • Despite the criticisms, there are acknowledgments of the facility's efforts, with one long-term employee recommending it for both work and care, and another review expressing gratitude for the care provided to a family member.

    In summary, while there are instances of commendable care and dedicated staff members, the facility also faces serious allegations of neglect, poor conditions, and inadequate communication that potential residents and their families should consider.
