My dad was in this place for 3 days. We are from out of state and before we arrived we could not speak or get calls back from the nursing staff on his condition. He was sent here for physical/ occupational and speech therapy. They bill themselves as skilled nursing. PT consisted of getting up to a wheelchair and toilet. When we arrived he was still in a hospital gown. It wasn’t until we told them we would be back that they had him sitting at a table to eat. He received no oral care or bathing. He was so dehydrated he ended up having seizures, we caught the seizure, they insisted he was tired. Finally after his blood pressure was too low to take they had to send him out. Please do not send your loved ones here, my dad would not have come out of here alive if we had not been there. The quality of care and the integrity from the staff is severely lacking.100% would never recommend.

My mom was here for a little over a week, from day one when she pushed her button for assistance it was rare that it took less than 15 minutes for someone to come help her. There was a time when she waited 2 hours needing to use the restroom and she kept getting informed someone would be there to help shortly. No one came and I called the person that answered was extremely rude regarding the situation. This issue was supposed to be resolved and for about a day they assisted in a timely manner but after that it was back to waiting too long for help. 100% don’t recommend allowing loved ones to stay here.

I would not recommend this place to anyone. Frankly, I wouldn't recommend any of these kinds of places to anyone. They're like water, they take the path of least resistance when it comes to the care of the patient. The majority of the staff has little interest in what is actually best for patient, especially if it requires having to think and problem solve. Also, there is ZERO common sense applied at this facility and you can be assured they'll do exactly what's easiest for them, again, with no regard to what's best for the patient.<br><br>If at all possible, do yourself a favor and use home care. Even then, it's a 50/50 shot you'll get someone that actually puts the needs of the patient above what's easiest for them. However, it's much easier to deal with bad apples inside your home than to have to catch and deal with them at a resident facility.

This place was great when my mother moved in originally. When they were bought by a corporate entity, the quality and service has suffered. The food was so poor that after wrestling with on-site management for 2.5 years my mom finally decided to move out<br><br>All budgets have been cut including house keeping for the residents. I CANNOT recommend this place to anyone considering it

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 →
