Management is trash

Both of my parents received fabulous care there...It's small enough that everyone knows each other, unlike some of the town-like CCRCs in the area. Accessible staff, great food, any issues were resolved quickly. Highly recommended!!

It's a shame former disgruntled employees feel the need to unnecessarily and inappropriately slander a wonderful company. Especially when the allegations are untrue. United Zion is a great place to work and the PCHA goes above and beyond for the residents that live there. The residents love her and she is a great boss as well. I work here as well as for a nursing agency and this facility is one of the nicest I have stepped foot in. Very sanitary and clean. The employees take pride in their jobs and the residents are happy and very well taken care of. I would gladly have my grandparents live here and trust that they would be well taken care of ♡

United Zion focuses on the individual needs of each person, including memory support (including for those with Alzheimer’s), regardless of which level of living they reside. We are an integrated community when it comes to dementia care, so we do not offer a dedicated or secured memory care unit. Individual circumstances may require additional caregiver supervision or transfer to Personal Care or Healthcare to ensure that the appropriate support will be available. Current technologies are also used at the main building to enhance the safety and security of individuals displaying a potential to wander.
