My opinions on the facility are very mixed. They do have nice equipment and keep it very clean and maintained.. It did take them a long time to solve a mold problem in the activity room, but it is solved now. The paid staff seems well trained for medical emergencies and give the impression of being caring people. At least one of the volunteers is iffy. He wears insulting and sometime very suggestive tee shirts and will jump in your face if he thinks you are talking too loud in the corridors. With the recent cutting of paid staff hours, more dependency on volunteers is scary.

Overall, the group activities are good, but there are some problems. More than a few people find it necessary to wear ear protection to the classes that crank the volume excessively for motivation. Many other people just refuse to take those activities. There is no evaluation system for the classes other then the patrons filling out comment slips. One of the instructors carries the comment slips into his Tai Chi/ Qigong classes, stands in front of you and tells you what to write. His certification was received Long-Distance ( yes, a mail order cert) and his skills, knowledge and qualifications are extremely questionable.

They have great services. The gym is good for all kinds of people. The physical therapists are kind and polite.
