I have mixed feelings. Many caregivers are wonderful, professional and attentive - my loved one is happy, the room is decent, and the price/Medi-Cal acceptance gave our family peace of mind. The facility is older and inconsistent: sometimes clean and well-maintained, other times there were bad odors, pests, mold and understaffing. Management and accountability worry me - med-tech training varies, night shift is weak, alarms/monitoring failed and a missing-resident incident was tragic. Good, caring staff, but serious safety and management issues mean I can't fully recommend it.
