- Memory care
Compassionate memory care, sometimes inconsistent
I liked the small, family-style memory care here - kind, professional staff, a high staff-to-resident ratio, quick responses from the director, easy move-in, and genuinely attentive, sometimes above-and-beyond care that gave us peace of mind. The facility is attractive, home-like (open kitchen, sunny rooms, courtyard) and generally clean. That said, communication was inconsistent, staff turnover and shortages caused uneven care, and we had occasional laundry/cleanliness issues; management could be better. Overall excellent, compassionate memory care but pricey and sometimes inconsistent.
