My husband went here a couple of months ago after having suffered a stroke which robbed him of his cognitive ability. He is in a ward as that is all we can afford on disability pensions. The room is quite crammed and small, and truthfully it should only be 3 beds in this room at the maximum.
My hubby is a fussy eater (meat and potatoes) but he likes the food here which is a bonus. There are quite a few activities for the residents, including bingo 3 times a week which my husband quite enjoys going to. Also a movie shown on Sunday afternoons.
The PSWs, nurse and other staff are superb - I cannot fault them in the least. They are very caring towards the residents. If I had to fault the place on anything, it is the lack of available staff during meal times. There does appear to be a shortage of PSWs on the floor - and I can understand budgets, but if someone needs help while in the washroom, I have had to go tracking someone down a couple of times to help. Also there seems to be at least 2 people on his floor with dementia (one being a screamer), and I do wish there was another floor devoted to the care of these individuals.

Other than that - a 4 star review.
