Former high standards at the home

The red-brick building was once considered a rare jewel in the nursing home industry. Residents received fresh clothes and floors were scrubbed daily by dedicated staff. Employees remained with the organization for decades before management changed.

New ownership arrives from New Jersey

Mirlis moved into the position in early 2020 after leaving his previous role in New Jersey. The facility maintained its five-star government rating for more than two years under the old leadership. Everything changed once the new owner took control of the operation.
