This facility provided sufficient care and catered to the resident's special dietary requirements. I found the live birds in the entryway to be a nice touch and the resident enjoyed watching them. The staff had no problem with us checking the patient out to wander the grounds or even go offsite for a time. Obviously, this is handled on a case-by-case basis. Additionally, a very friendly dog wanders around the facility from time to time, which is pleasant for residents.The staff was friendly and seemed competent. They were prompt about seeing to needs, and were pleasant to visitors as well as residents. They answered my questions about the resident's care openly, and were happy to direct me to the right people to talk to about mail, food, etc.My only significant complaint was that several of the hallways had a strong smell of stale urine. I understand that some people in the facility lack control of their bodily functions, but I would hope properly cleaning such messes would be a high priority.
