Not a good place for animals to go, you know humans should not be there. First, they need to come in and update the entire place. I don’t know how the State would let such a nasty unkept facility stay opened. Something wrong with the system to let Elderly people to live like this. I’m so ashamed that society don’t care about their Elderly any longer.
- Chandler Smith ★★★★★ August 9, 2024
Great facility. The floor staff, dietary staff, and administration all do a great job at making the residents feel safe and at home. The new administrator has taken on a big role and conducts herself with professionalism and brings a wealth of knowledge to the facility. All of the staff truly have the residents' best interest at heart and go out of their way to show them love and respect. They have the best activities and make festive gatherings to treat the staff and residents on a regular basis.

I wouldn’t bring my dog to this facility. There’s mice holes everywhere and rat droppings. The residents don’t get taken care of. Everyone under the reviews are workers at this facility! Don’t trust it. The administrator don’t have a license. The DON has only been a RN for a month. They DO NOT DRUG TEST THEIR STAFF. THEY DO NOT DRUG TEST THEIR STAFF. THEY DO NOT DRUG TEST THEIR STAFF.

About this data
How to read this page
Star ratings vs. Care Quality Score: The Google star rating reflects visitor and family opinions collected from public reviews. The Care Quality Score is an independent metric derived entirely from federal inspection data — the two measure different things, and comparing them side-by-side gives a fuller picture.
Where this data comes from
All clinical data on this page originates from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), the federal agency that certifies and inspects every Medicare- and Medicaid-participating nursing home in the United States. Reviews are imported verbatim from public Google business listings.
What to do next
Data is a starting point, not a final answer. We encourage families to visit facilities in person, observe daily routines, and speak with staff and residents. See our guide: Questions to Ask When Visiting →
