Good Community, But Now Needs Improvement and Cleaning Crew

The community recently lost their activities director and they don't have a lot of activities going on for the residents. They have lost the head nurse, and director at the same time as they lost the activities director. The community has smell in the memory care area. Due to these inconsistences I wouldn't recommend you place your loved one in the community.

The only thing I really liked about the facility was the Marketing director and activities director. With everything else, I was not impressed at all. The rooms did not have central air. If you wanted to have air conditioning you would have to ask maintenance to put in a window AC. There was water damage on the roof and it was not in the greatest shape. It seemed like all of the minor details of upkeep were [Removed]. Also, in your room you only have a half bath. For the showers, you would have to go to the communi…

Mom is Law is Enjoying Her Time at This Community

From the reports we get from my brother in law, my mother is doing well since her move to this community. She is enjoying her time at this community.

A special thank-you....

"Dear [Removed]...A special Thank-You to you & your staff for the the kind consideration that has been provided for my wife...

I have worked in public health all my life; I am aware of the administrative & collaborative efforts in maintaining a well-run program to provide for the varying health issues. I comme…

Unexpected visit....very pleased

[Removed]- this is a text I just received from my niece [Removed]- .....referring to Grandma on her latest visit to Carolina "I came in today when the CNA had gramma in the bathroom. No one expected me and it was a full 5 minutes before the CNA had a clue I was here... I was beyond pleased with how sweet they were with her and how kind gentle and patient" "Thank you, thank you for taking such good care of her- please find the CNA and thank her too."

not financial friendly

Our mom has been there for almost 2 years. When we first talked to them, we told them our mom's money will run out in almost 2 years. They told us that is not a problem they take in county aid residents. Well her money ran out and they told us they have no openings for county aid, they were at their limit and that we would have to pay the extra $1000.00 per month that the county doesn't pay. Needless to say we are moving her out. They got all her money and now she is no longer good enough for them. So beware, if yo…
