    Small facility, understaffed, safety concerns

    I had a mixed experience. The facility is small and well-kept with warm, friendly aides and some caring nurses who genuinely helped my family - but chronic understaffing and poor management created serious safety concerns. Therapy was minimal, meds were often late or wrong, residents were left in bed or soiled, showers were rare, and I saw rough handling, verbal abuse, and infections that led to hospitalization. Communication was inconsistent and front-desk/office staff could be rude or unhelpful. Verify staffing, hygiene, and med protocols before trusting someone here - I can't fully recommend it despite a few compassionate caregivers.
