The move-in process was fine, no issues really. When it comes to meals, the main course is not quality, and the preparation I would say to be the same. The menu repeats itself too often, there is not enough variety. The food is cold if you're not there at the beginning of meal time. The staff forgets to bring items that were asked for. As for improvement, there needs to be someway to look up an account online to request maintenance online. When it comes to laundry, the CNA's take care of it and it is not done properly. They do not have the equipment, nor the time, to do the two loads per week that they say they provide.","reviewerDisplayName":"Anonymous","experienceTypeId":4,"experienceTypeName":"I'm a loved one of a resident or client"},{"reviewTitle":"Family taking care of family.

The experience I’ve had with Harmony has been excellent. The facility is clean and safe. My Dad was able to integrate into the community easily and quickly. The other residents have been friendly and helpful. In my interactions with the staff, I have found them to be caring and helpful. Of special note, I must say that[name removed] their Sales and Marketing Director, has gone above and beyond her job description to help my Dad and me. It is abundantly clear that [name removed] truly loves and cares about/for the people at Harmony. As just one example of many things she has done, she has personally contacted me on her days off to make me aware of things concerning the well being of my Dad and made sure she and the Harmony staff were doing everything possible to watch out for and assist him to ensure he was safe and well taken care of.
