    Warm caring staff, some concerns

    I placed my loved one here and overall I'm pleased. The staff are warm, knowledgeable and genuinely caring - memory care is strong, activities are plentiful, and the building is bright, very clean and well designed. Food was generally good but I noticed occasional dining/seating and medication/attention issues, and staffing ratios can feel thin at times. For dementia-focused assisted living close to home, I'd recommend it - just confirm staffing and dining accommodations first.
