As with most everything, what you put in to a place is what you get out of it. As long as you are on top of things, frequent visits and get to know the staff, it's a very good place.

Staff is very caring very accommodating for special needs and always available to help. They're also very encouraging the resident I feel it could be more nutrition based foods, like more fresh veggies and fruit.
