★Christy · 2026-03-21 · via Google

“Our biggest regret. Basic needs not met. They left our loved one to sit/lay in same position for hours or even the entire day so he began developing pressure wounds. Left to sit in feces and urine hours after notifying CNA and/or nurse. Several hours would go daily by with no check-in from nurse or aid. Some days food tray left out of reach. Help eating not provided so missed meals when we weren't…”

★★★★★Brent Gerbig · 2026-06-30 · via Google

“The only skilled nursing home, I Recommend to families when discharging from The hospital.. The administration staff is easy to work with and coordinate discharge plans even on weekends!”

★Judy Ashman · 2025-12-15 · via Google

“My mom was a resident there for 4 years and passed away in July. Still haven't had a single call from ANYONE at Community to express condolences. I don't have the emotional energy to write out all the terrible experiences she endured. I would have tried to move her but was told they were the "best in town" by an outside professional.”
