I visited my family member recently and felt the need to write a review . I was highly impressed by the cleanliness, and how friendly the staff was. The physical therapy is working, I recommend this place to all.

Being to this nursing home to do my customers nail, I was surprised how cleanness and comfort of this building. I need to pass a very rigorous security system that can lead me to my customer. Joining the time I doing my 93years old lady’s nail, this lady name Deyarys came in to check my customer, she was so sweet and professional, we had very nice conversations. I’m sure this is the place that people can rely on.

I am very pleased with the care in this facility. Extremely clean, professional, and caring staff members with a very family oriented community. So happy to see how well my father was taken care of. I would especially like to thank Dee and the admissions team for being so informative and answering every question with no detail left behind.

My husband spent 5 weeks at this facility. I gave it 2 stars for the following reasons:

+One star is for the excellent care the doctors, nurses, and supporting staff provided. It was consistent and welcoming.
+One star is for the cleanliness that shone through the 5 weeks my husband was there. The room was swept, bed made, garbage removed everyday.
-Minus one star for the poor Social Work that was provided. He was discharged on 11/11/223 with the premise of having supporting services approved. We are still waiting...
-Minus one star for the Dietician who kept him on a renal diet that didn't make sense. He was served foods that are not allowed on a renal diet and that he would never consume. Part of wellness is proper nutrition...
-Minus one star for the daytime security who was hostile and unhelpful.
- not much physical therapy was provided due to his fluctuating blood pressure.
Recommendations:
If you need transportation to and from doctor's appointments, call Uber. It's more affordable and the ride won't be hard on your loved one.
- order your own outpatient equipment. Everything ordered by the Physical Therapy Department was returned due to poor quality and weight. Amazon. Is a better option.
-Make sure that all outpatient therapies are in place before patient discharge.

Facility is very clean and well equipped. The staff at every level of care are professional, attentive, knowledgeable and courteous. The rooms are private and have individual bathrooms.
I would not hesitate to recommend this facility for rehabilitation or nursing care.
