“Due to the facility's repeated failure to provide necessary care, I would not recommend it. Notably, there is a lack of advocates for residents with memory impairments, and staff are unkind when family members advocate on their behalf.”

★★★★★Bradley Barber · 2022-02-16 · via Google
“A 5 star facility! Highly impressed with the professionalism of the staff. The residents are up, dressed and happy. Kudos to Maintenance - because the floors are so clean and shinny - the glare almost blinds you!!! Thanks for the hospitality - B. Barber Oil Trough, AR”
