Read Full SummaryRead less
- Track record — Over 3.6 years of operation the community has one Type A finding (the most severe citation class, tied to resident safety or care) and one Type B finding (an administrative citation, such as paperwork or posting issues), both from earlier in the licensed period.
- Recent 3 years — All three inspections in the past three years, plus four complaint investigations, produced zero Type A or Type B citations and zero substantiated allegations, indicating a stronger recent trajectory.
- Complaints — Nine allegations have been investigated over the licensed period and none were substantiated, with three ruled unsubstantiated and six unfounded.
- Operating tenure — Licensed since January 2023, the community has a relatively short operating history, so this record reflects a limited but consistent number of inspection cycles rather than decades of data.

AI review summary
The Grove often earns praise for friendly staff, cleanliness, and good food, but a significant number of reviews describe slow call-button response times and troubling lapses in medical monitoring worth investigating.
Read Full SummaryRead less
- Staff & care — Many reviewers describe staff, therapy teams, and leadership as friendly, compassionate, and attentive, with several naming specific staff members who went above and beyond.
- Atmosphere & grounds — The facility is frequently described as clean, fresh-smelling, and more like a nice hotel than a typical care facility, with spacious rooms and pleasant common areas.
- Dining — Several residents and families report the food is delicious and nutritious, though a few others found it mediocre or standard.
- Activities — Reviewers mention a tightly knit community feel, engaging activities, and helpful transportation services for appointments and outings.
- Value & pricing — Multiple tour reviews highlight surprisingly reasonable pricing for the level of care and amenities provided.
- Staff & care — A recurring and serious concern is slow response to call buttons, sometimes taking an hour or more, and instances where residents were left waiting for help with basic needs like transfers or medication.
- Communication — Some families describe requests for care accommodations going unaddressed despite repeated reminders, and a lack of proactive communication about changing medical conditions or transportation logistics.
- Daily life & dignity — A few reviews describe residents feeling neglected or unmonitored, including a report of a missed chest X-ray before a medical emergency, so families should ask how vital signs and symptoms are tracked and escalated.
- Atmosphere & grounds — Families should confirm current visitor parking availability and accessibility, since multiple reviews note limited parking and busy downtown surroundings.
