However, reviews from residents and their families highlight persistent challenges in staff communication, largely due to limited English proficiency among many caregivers. This has impacted residents’ ability to express their needs and concerns effectively. Infection control protocols at the facility have also drawn scrutiny: one incident involved a staff member providing care while symptomatic with the flu, despite the absence of a staff vaccination mandate. This resulted in a vulnerable resident being hospitalized with influenza, and subsequent criticism from the family centered on the lack of communication and follow-up from facility management. Families have noted that while the facility maintains cleanliness and offers meals that residents enjoy, they express significant concerns regarding the responsiveness of staff to health issues and overall resident well-being. These issues have prompted some families to seek alternative placements for their loved ones.
