Read Full SummaryRead less
- Track record — Across 16.4 years of licensure, this small 6-bed home has drawn 4 Type A and 8 Type B citations, a notable total to ask about directly given the home's small scale.
- Recent 3 years — The 4 dated inspections since 2022 recorded no Type A citations from complaint visits, though 2 Type B findings and all 3 substantiated allegations on record fall within this recent window, meaning the lifetime Type A total predates the recent period.
- Complaints — Of the allegations investigated over the licensed period, about 75% were substantiated, and all 3 substantiated allegations trace to the single complaint investigation in April 2025.
- Operating tenure — A licensing history stretching back to 2010 gives this record real weight — findings here reflect a long track record rather than a short or thin inspection history.
- 1.Which categories of allegations were substantiated in the April 2025 investigation, and what corrective actions were taken and verified?
- 2.Can you walk through what the 4 Type A citations involved and when they occurred relative to the recent clean inspection stretch?
- 3.What changes has the home made since 2025 to prevent recurrence of the issues that led to substantiated allegations?

AI review summary
Families overwhelmingly praise this small residential home for attentive, personalized caregiving and honest pricing, though weekend staffing and activity variety are worth confirming on a tour.
Read Full SummaryRead less
- Staff & care — Reviewers consistently describe caregivers and owners Russ and Elina as attentive, patient, and responsive, often naming specific staff who went above and beyond for difficult or high-needs residents.
- Value & pricing — Several families contrast Be Well favorably with pricier corporate communities, noting stable rates and no surprise fee increases.
- Communication — Families highlight proactive, reassuring updates from ownership rather than the stressful calls they experienced elsewhere.
- Atmosphere & grounds — The home is repeatedly described as clean, beautiful, and set in a quiet residential neighborhood with private rooms and outdoor space.
- Dining — Meals are generally called fresh, nutritious, and accommodating of special diets, though one older review felt the food could improve.
- Activities — One review noted a lack of organized activities, while others mention morning exercises and occasional bingo, so families should ask about the current daily activity schedule.
- Daily life & dignity — A family wished for more outdoor walks and exercise time for their loved one, so it's worth asking how mobility and outdoor time are prioritized.
- Staffing levels — Reviews describe two to three caregivers for up to six residents, so confirming overnight and weekend staffing ratios would be helpful.
