St. James Healthcare Ctr
3.7

Cleanliness was, I would say, above average. That was the thing they did the best. The only activities they had consistently were movies, bingo and once a month a one man band kind of thing. there were two people to a room, and they could bring a tv or dresser but the rest was hospital beds and felt very much like a hospital.

The meals are fine, just typical hospital type food. The doctors have called as they've seen her, but nobody else has really reached out in the week she's been there.

The community is beautiful and well maintained. The staff is friendly, helpful and attentive. The nursing staff is on top of all the residents healthcare needs. There are plenty of activities to interest everyone. Our family feels blessed to have found this Assisted Living to care for our parents. We now have peace of mind and can enjoy time with them without having to be full time caregivers.
