Safety and health care have declined considerably since I moved here three years ago; I would give one star on that basis. The other residents are great and the food is superb, worthy of five stars. On balance, three stars. UPDATE: I have now been here for nine years, and things have improved mightily during that time. I feel safe and well cared for. The food is still great! So five stars.

My mother was here for rehab after a fall at her home. When she was admitted into CHOMP, I requested that she be sent to Canterbury. I worked at Canterbury in my youth, and remembered working with an exceptional and caring staff. Therefore, I knew that my mom would be well taken care of, and that she was. Thank you for the excellent care and attention. My mother enjoyed her time at Canterbury SNF.

My Mother passed away about three weeks ago. The last 20 years of her life she lived in Canterbury Woods first in independent living then in assisted living. I can not say enough good things about this facility. The staff from administrator, Elvyra, to housekeeping were wonderful. They gave Mom care, love, dignity, safety, and a sense of community. Between staff and the residence it’s like being…
