Our philosophy of care
Our staff, residents, and their families work together to develop and coordinate care plans that cater to residents' every day needs.
Offering 37 beds, the Long Term Care Center was recently remodeled to create a warm and friendly environment that includes renovated residential rooms, a beautiful outdoor courtyard, a beauty salon, activities room, and physical therapy room.
