    Warm staff but inconsistent management

    My mom has lived here three years and overall we're pleased - the staff are caring, helpful and communicative, residents are welcoming, the bright new facility feels homelike, and there are lots of activities and good location/amenities. That said, management and staffing can be inconsistent: there's high turnover, occasional lapses in care (missed checks, an ignored call button), and mixed food quality-great at times but sometimes cold or oversalted; I'd especially question memory-care consistency. I'd recommend this community for its warm, attentive staff and programs, but tour carefully and ask about staffing stability, emergency response, and food/memory-care practices.
