Staff was very pleasant. Lead me to the room I was looking for. Knocked on the door and announced my presence. Making sure the resident wanted to see me. Resident safety is important to them.

Sadly, I have talked to the state multiple times in-regards to care of our loved one.. Contracted physician care from Winn-Med was Excellent!!! But sadly care below that level was very spotty. Years ago this was the facility to place your loved one, but very few of those skilled and caring personnel is still working there. If this is your only option please make sure you or a family member is in the facility often to advocate for your love one’s care!
