We're thrilled to earn another deficiency-free state survey in May 2026! This is our fourth deficiency-free state survey in two years, shortly following our assisted living survey results in March. This is the highest recognition awarded by the state, reflecting excellence in clinical and environmental compliance, as well as positive feedback from both residents and staff.
Executive Director Maddie Almodovar stated: "These kinds of results don’t happen overnight. They are achieved through daily discipline and dedication. It is a team effort, and I am surrounded by the most fantastic humans. My Memory Care Administrator, Crissy Olinger, is a true inspiration to work with. Anyone who spends five minutes with her can feel the love she has for her residents. I look forward to many more years of providing residents and families with the high level of care they need and deserve." ... See MoreSee Less
