Nursing homes are called God's Waiting Room for a reason. If you have no choice other than to put a loved one into a nursing home, you'd do well to choose this one. It's got a peaceful, welcoming vibe about it, it's not unbearably hot and stuffy inside like most nursing homes, the staff are great and, again unlike other nursing homes, it never stinks. I don't know what they do differently but it always smells pleasantly fresh there, in all sections. Also offers ample parking.
