0 star for the senior home. Irresponsible staff. Filthy place with dead mice.

Simply the most compassionate extended care centre I have ever witnessed. If I could give them more than 5 stars I would. The dedication, support, service, and around the clock care is astonishing. The attention to detail provided is exemplary and my grandmother seems to be in such happier spirits being around new friends and a great group of nurses. I cannot stress this enough, this place should only be getting 5/5 star ratings.
