I absolutely love it here at Gateway. There are lots of activities, food is good, most residents are real nice and easy to get along with. The staff is wonderful. I’m friends with many residents who are awesome. Definitely worth living here.
They struggle keeping it staffed as all I imagine all places do. the location was great for our family, my sister ultimately made the decision to move here.
This is probably a very good thing for my loved one being here, and the activities are great. The staff are friendly and overall I think they care for the residents. Everyone other than residents must wear a mask, and I believe this has kept COVID infections down in the community. The community has a main option for meals and then there is an a la carte option for the residents to choose from if needed. Some of the activities available include cards, bingo, exercise classes, movies, and more for the residents to choose from. My loved one is very interested in all the activities and this has really made our family happy that our loved one enjoys all the activities offered.
