Read Full SummaryRead less
- Track record — Across six years of licensure and four inspections, the only citation on record is a single Type B administrative finding, with no findings tied to resident safety or care.
- Complaints — Both complaint investigations, involving 11 allegations, resulted in no substantiated findings, indicating the concerns raised did not hold up on review.
- Operating tenure — Six years of licensure with regular inspection cycles gives a reasonably solid basis for confidence in this clean record.
- Scope note — The inspections behind this record check areas like medication management and staff training, so the absence of citations reflects those areas being in order at each visit.

- Value & pricing — One recent reviewer specifically mentions great prices alongside the quality of care and cleanliness.
- Financial transparency — Reviews don't detail how pricing structures work or whether costs increase as care needs change, so families should confirm this during a tour.
