Compassionate staff, facility needs improvement
I'm grateful for the amazing, compassionate staff - kind RNs, helpful aides and a true family-like feel; residents are well cared for, clean and engaged with activities. That said, the building feels outdated and sometimes unsafe, staffing is thin at times (infrequent baths, limited PT), and the low-salt food is bland with some rooms feeling depressing and occasionally smelly. Great people doing their best, but the facility itself needs better upkeep and resources.
