Beautiful facility but inconsistent care
I had mixed feelings. The campus is beautiful, rooms are large and clean, and many staff - especially therapy, some nurses, aides and front-desk - were caring, helpful and professional. However I also saw frequent, serious problems: missed or late meals and meds, dirty trays and bedpan neglect, long no-check periods, poor communication/phone access, understaffing and safety concerns. Staff quality was inconsistent - some outstanding, some neglectful - so I cannot fully recommend it without verifying reliable staffing and oversight.
