Caring staff but safety concerns
I placed my dad in this beautifully renovated, family-run memory care home and I'm grateful for the loving, communicative staff, individualized high-quality care, clean home-like environment and strong dementia expertise. However, I've seen understaffing, turnover and poor supervision that have led to repeated falls and other safety risks, plus inaccessible meal times and restricted visitation during precautions. Overall the team is amazing and caring, but leadership must urgently address staffing and safety.
