relative to routine inspections.
- Track record — Over just above three years of licensure, the community has drawn 6 Type A and 3 Type B (administrative, paperwork or procedural) citations, a notable concentration of the more serious class for a community this young.
- Recent 3 years — The past three years show 1 Type A and 3 Type B citations from complaint-related visits, meaning the bulk of the lifetime Type A count sits just outside this recent window, which is worth clarifying directly with the community.
- Complaints — 20 complaint investigations against only 3 routine inspections is a wide gap, and of the allegations investigated, 6 were substantiated and 37 unsubstantiated, putting the substantiation rate around 14 percent.
- Operating tenure — Licensed since June 2023, this is a relatively young operation at 176 beds, so the inspection and complaint history reflects a compressed timeframe rather than a long multi-decade track record.
- 1.Can you walk through what the 6 substantiated allegations involved and what corrective actions were taken and verified by the state?
- 2.What specifically led to the Type A citations, and which of those were addressed in the past three years versus earlier in the licensing period?
- 3.Given the high volume of complaint investigations relative to routine inspections, what steps has the community taken to reduce complaints going forward?

Read Full SummaryRead less
- Staff & care — Staff are frequently described as friendly, professional, and patient, which reassures families new to assisted living.
- Atmosphere & grounds — Visitors consistently note a welcoming, home-like feel rather than an institutional nursing home atmosphere.
- Activities — Reviewers mention a variety of games and social events along with a diverse, culturally rich resident community.
- Financial transparency — Some families report billing inaccuracies and aggressive sales tactics, so ask for a clear, itemized breakdown of costs and how they change with care level.
- Staff & care — Concerns about understaffing and high staff turnover suggest families should ask about staffing ratios, especially for residents needing more support.
- Cleanliness & maintenance — A few reviewers describe the facility as run-down, so it's worth touring in person to assess current upkeep.
- Dining — Opinions on food quality vary, so families should sample a meal and ask how dietary needs are handled over time.
