If you need to work with anyone about the transition of a family member/loved one into a facility, I hope that you have the opportunity to work with Brittany. Brittany is such a loving and caring individual, who understands all aspects of the transition. I believe her to be helpful outside of her scope of employment, with deep knowledge of the system, and contacts everywhere for everything. She is a beautiful person who cares deeply about everyone that she interacts with. She has my highest admiration, and I cannot thank her enough for everything that she has done for my mother, myself, and my family.

On the surface the building is lovely and it seems clean and the staff friendly. But when my mom stayed there she was neglected, did not help her with showering and her personal hygiene as they were supposed to do, does she ended up with several UTIs that in the hospital with one severe one. I was going up there every day to check on her and help her which exhausted me. I would really check your options before going to this facility.
