    Compassionate care, but staffing issues

    I placed my mother here and overall I'm grateful - the nurses, CNAs and therapy team were compassionate and attentive, meds and wound care were handled well, and PT/OT helped her regain independence. The facility is clean, staff are friendly and coordinated well with hospice/social services, and activities kept residents engaged. Be aware the place is often short-staffed/overworked (limited baths, occasional hygiene lapses, delays in communication after transfers), meals and private rooms are limited, and I saw some inconsistent care early on. After initial hesitation things improved and I would recommend this facility while advising families to stay involved and ask about staffing, bathing schedules, and costs.
