She loves the arts and Crafts that they do, and the social hours. We have attended some of their special events and enjoyed them all. Whenever my aunt has an issue, the caregivers respond and assist her and are very caring and kind. She loved going to the hard rock casino and to the shopping trips they do!

The nursing staff is amazing. They have been very responsive to both my mother and the family. The PA on staff is also amazing. It's definitely a comfort to know that Mom has access to doctors and nurses should she need them. They have been a little short staffed on the aids and the cleaners and the kitchen servers. They say that they have open positions but haven't been able to fill them in the last few weeks. . It's small enough and private enough to offer that individual attention that you don't get at larger institutions like Cedar Crest.
