He's not been there since early April but it worked out well. Dad was really content there for the most part. Only complaint I had was getting timely invoices for insurance. Elevator needed new flooring as I recall and so did dads room but he didn't need carpet. They will probably change that.

Facility is bright and cheery. Staff go above and beyond. My Mom receives attentive care and she loves living there. She says she feels very safe knowing that someone will help her immediately if necessary. Could not have found a better place locally for her care.
