Review Summary
The following is an AI generated summary of the reviews of the community from across the web.
The reviews for the senior living facility present a mixed picture, with some highlighting positive experiences and others expressing serious concerns. Positive comments praise the cleanliness, organization, and the caring nature of the staff. Specific staff members, including a concierge named Lisha, are mentioned for their helpfulness and dedication. The creation of a Concierge position is noted as a beneficial addition, providing residents with assistance and access to items. Some reviewers express gratitude for the care received, mentioning the comfort and attention to their needs during their stay, and commend the efforts of specific staff members in making their experience pleasant.
However, several reviews raise significant issues regarding the facility's management, staff behavior, and the handling of COVID-19 protocols. Concerns include a lack of professionalism among management, with reports of weekend supervisors using profanity and belittling visitors. The facility's response to the COVID-19 pandemic is criticized for over 120 cases among residents and staff, restrictive visitation policies, and a lack of normalcy in living standards. Communication difficulties are highlighted, with families struggling to reach staff or receive callbacks, leading to frustration and anxiety. There are also reports of mismanagement of residents' personal belongings and essential medical equipment.
Some reviews describe negative experiences with the staff's attitude and care level, including neglect and a lack of responsiveness to residents' needs. A particularly distressing account mentions a resident's health being jeopardized due to not receiving necessary medications. Another review alleges a serious incident involving staff members, further questioning the facility's safety and management.
Despite these concerns, some reviewers express satisfaction with the care provided, noting the friendliness and reliability of the staff, the quality of the food, and the attentiveness of therapists, social workers, and concierge services. The facility's environment is described as great by some, with a responsive staff creating a family-like atmosphere.
In summary, while there are instances of positive feedback regarding staff care and the facility's environment, significant concerns about management practices, staff behavior, COVID-19 handling, and resident care need to be addressed to ensure the well-being of current and future residents.
