    Compassionate staff but serious deficiencies

    I had a mixed, ultimately disappointing experience. There are some truly compassionate nurses and helpful therapy and activity staff - medication management and communication were often excellent and a few departments were clean and attentive. However I also encountered dismissive, rude or neglectful aides, poor or unsafe hygiene (bad odors, dim/depressing halls), overcooked/tasteless food, inconsistent care for dementia patients, and unprofessional/slow administration (transfer denials/delays). Because of the serious lapses I witnessed, I can't recommend the facility overall - seek alternatives, though the nursing team deserves credit.
