Twenty-year employee, caring, some concerns
I've worked here 20 years. The place is consistently very clean, smells pleasant, and the staff are warm, compassionate and attentive - administration and therapy are helpful, visits are easy, and residents generally seem happy and well cared for. That said, there have been isolated but serious lapses reported (wound/skin issues, falls, delays in care) that need addressing. Overall I trust the caring team and would feel comfortable placing a loved one here, but stay involved and ask questions.
