- Track record — Across nearly four decades of licensure, the community has accumulated 3 Type A and 10 Type B (administrative, paperwork-level) citations, a modest total for a 206-bed community operating that long.
- Recent 3 years — One Type A and two Type B citations were issued in the past three years, meaning the record is not settling into a fully clean recent stretch and the most severe class of finding has appeared recently rather than only long ago.
- Complaints — Of the 7 complaint investigations filed over the community's history, 4 allegations were substantiated, including 3 within just the last three years, so complaint activity has been concentrated recently rather than spread evenly.
- Operating tenure — Nearly 40 years of continuous licensure gives this record substantial weight — enough inspection and complaint cycles to read the recent uptick as meaningful rather than noise.
- 1.Can you walk through what led to the Type A citation issued in the past three years and what corrective steps were verified afterward?
- 2.Which categories of the substantiated allegations from 2023-2025 were confirmed, and what changes were made in response?
- 3.Has staffing, care planning, or medication management been affected by any of these findings, and how is the community monitoring for recurrence?

AI review summary
Families overwhelmingly praise the warm, attentive memory care staff and homey atmosphere, but should confirm current pricing and whether the community can accommodate specific medical needs.
Read Full SummaryRead less
- Staff & care — Reviewers consistently describe staff as caring, patient, well-trained in dementia care, and genuinely invested in residents' wellbeing, often knowing them by name.
- Atmosphere & grounds — The community is repeatedly described as homey rather than institutional, with a beautiful courtyard, gardens, and a hotel-like feel that many say they'd choose for themselves.
- Activities — Families highlight a robust and varied activity schedule, including outings, music, arts and crafts, exercise classes, and special events tailored to residents' abilities.
- Communication — Multiple reviewers note that staff proactively update families on changes in condition and support them closely through difficult transitions.
- Dining — Residents and families frequently mention that the food is good, with a varied and changing menu prepared by long-tenured kitchen staff.
- Value & pricing — Several reviewers describe the cost as high or prohibitive relative to other communities in the area, so families should clarify current rates and what drives them.
- Fit for needs — A few reviews mention the community, which focuses on memory care, was not the right fit for more independent or behavioral residents, so families should discuss admission criteria for their loved one's specific condition.
- Room features — Some reviewers note rooms are single occupancy without kitchenettes and bathrooms can be small, so families should tour and confirm room layouts meet their expectations.
