My mother moved here recently and so far things are going okay.She still misses home but she is adjusting and getting involved in activities. I have noticed they don't always have enough staff on hand. I rang the call button once and it took them 11 minutes to respond.I don't think that is fast enough in an emergency.

This is a nice community, and they are taking very good care of my father, and his needs. He is still adjusting to the routine around the community, but I know he is safe, and in good hands. They have activities offered for the residents. The meals are good, he is satisfied with the food. They specialize in the treating people with his condition.

Mom Likes He Room

The community is new and pretty lovely with a beautiful surrounding. My mom has a nice view from her room. They staff have always been nice at the times I've been there and my son has good rapport with them. They encourage activities. The meals are starting to be different and the dining room isn't as fancy now. They seemed understaffed or need more help. I also hope they will get a better Elder Care Bus arrangements with assistance for the residents who take outings. Overall, I am comfortable with my mom being here and no one has been mean to my mom.
