    I am changing my initial review upon October 2023 touring, occupancy for a family member in…read moreNovember 2023. Property sold March 1, 2024, and the transition has not gone well for residents. Directors have all been replaced. All is not as it was projected and is not looking up at the present. Many residents and families were disappointed but tried a "wait and see." I am not endorsing this Pennant/Pinnacle owned facility. I doubt they care very much what I think. My YELP community does. Type of care: Memory Care... The most vulnerable residents. Cleanliness...inconsistent Care of resident...inconsistent. Weight loss. Meals... (3 daily, no consistent snacks available or offered) food is forgettable and inedible). All residents get the same meals regardless of any dietary restrictions. Exercise or mental/sensory stimulus..inconsistent if at all. I'm giving care staff benefit of the doubt. Overwhelmed and overworked. Assuming tasks not qualified. Caregivers with an enormous list of daily routines. Currently 1 Caregiver for 8 (wing occupancy 18) with 1 medtech (that floats) during the day. Maintenance tasks incomplete. Facility now looks unclean and weathered. I am sure there is a corporate response on how to skate close to the edge of the law. It is just wrong and not a good look for an employer. Activities/outings have declined. DON not visible or accessible. The biggest overall incident is DON and Ex Dir being absent from the facility at the same time on vacations without adequate replacement coverage. Not bad after 6 weeks in the new location. Of course this was denied by corporate, yet no one saw the ghost "fill-ins". Office staff are doing the best that they can learning new systems and corporate environment. Hats off to those brave souls still trying to make it work. I fear those that are trying will be replaced soon. As every good management team knows, "it all stems from the TOP." The behavior is set. The buck stops there. You can only be as good as your weakest link. I am not inserting pictures, naming names to further embarrass anyone. Small community, news travels fast. Optics are not looking too great. How do you come back from this? Honesty and transparency would have been nice. Slash and burn putting residence at risk? Not so much.

    Once the new company took over the management has been horrible. They have flat out refused to…read moreanswer any of the multiple emails and voice mails I have left regarding billing issues and how my mother's death was handled. They have done nothing to show they have any interest other than making money. Avoid this place or any place owned by Pennant.
