“As a visitor, I was quite impressed with this place. When I walked in, it is tastefully decorated, warm and comfortable. A big thing for me, is that there was no offending smells. The staff was very cheerful and helpful. I am glad our aunt is living in such a nice place. She said everyone treats her very well too.”

If you do get someone and you ask them to go do something for your loved one and call you back they never do. Be very careful of leaving anything of value with your family member. It usually ends up missing or stolen. Absolutely no interaction…”
