Nice and clean personal care home with a great staff. The food they serve is always very good! My Mom has been there for a long time and I visit very often and I've never had any reason to question her care.

We're very pleased with the care at this community with one major issue. It's a lovely place, very clean, and the staff are friendly. However, they cannot deal with any sort of intravenous care. Any sort of IV has to be done elsewhere, which may be an issue for some residents.
