I would say it has been overall a very positive experience for my uncle and I would choose it again after him being there for a few months now.

My only complain is they need to answer emails from family members faster. But overall the facility is really fantastic. And my mom is happy there.

My mom's been there since July so it's been a short period but no complaints whatsoever. It's very clean, they're very friendly, occasionally there may be one person but that's just a personality thing. Overall, everyone's very friendly, when you come into the facility they greet you and they're very helpful. My mom just needs assistance with things, she's not independent, they handle all of the medications but my mother hasn't had any complaints and believe me she would tell me. My mom, believe it or not, is not one to go to activities, but I think she's slowly venturing out. She'll be 88 but she's not senile whatsoever, so I think some of the activities may be geared towards people who aren't so with it. They do have outings, but my mom, given the option, would chose not to go but I know they post calendar's of activities for the month and there's always something going on 2 or 3 times a day and the foods terrific, I'd give it a 5 plus. They say when you see it you know it and when I walked in I just knew it. She's had a couple of bumps in the road but they were addressed immediately and didn't happen again.
