My father felt very isolated there as they did not have many activities he was interested in. He did not like the food but the personnel were friendly to him and helped him to meals and gave him his medications but otherwise he did not see them very often as he did not leave his room. He was 99 years and it was hard for him to wheel himself around the facility. Much of the problem was his age and his ability to help himself as he should have and the lack of activities.
My wife and I love the family atmosphere here. We don’t have a lot of family and love that the family here have become our family.
all staff has always been very nice and treat my sister very well. well trained nurses.
