The staff here has really been good. The community is clean and they keep my aunts room clean as well. My aunt does not eat really, but the food looks good. I like that they have a lot of things to keep the residents active.

My mom has been here for 6 months. Memory care. She's 91. The staff has been kind and caring. The facility isn't too big. About 50 residents I think. It's been a good experience all the way around. Memory care is difficult and they have done a really good job with my Mom.

I would recommend to others. Overall, we are happy with the experience our mother is having, given her condition. The work of managing the memory care facility has got to be difficult and I appreciate them keeping her safe. Can't expect much more.
