Its full range of therapy services is designed to enhance the residents’ functional independence and quality of life.

Residents with Alzheimer’s and dementia are accommodated in the Courtyard Suites and given special care. The facility’s team approach to hospice care involves medical professionals, aides, social workers, bereavement counselors and volunteers for the comfort of the patients and their families.

My mother is settled and comfortable at The Guest House. She's been there for four years. They have games, church services, and movie nights. They have several common areas. They have a rehab exercise center and provide transportation to medical transportation, shopping, or restaurants. They serve three meals a day, but I think the meals could be better. I've had some issues with the staff, but they've gotten much better.

The staff at The Guest House is very helpful and friendly. My dad is not really happy with the food there. I would give the physical therapists extra-high praise because they are all very good and very professional. They are always available when I need to talk to them about my dad’s progress. My dad has a private room, which has a half bathroom, in a hall where all of the people there need only short-time care. They have church services, bingo, and movie nights. They need to improve their food to make it nice and healthy. They are doing a lot of renovations.
