I stayed at McCracken for many years. I found it to be safe at all times. Cleaning and cooking was done on a daily basis. It is very well kept. Staff is professional and kind to residents. We had many outside professional staff that came and did various treatments. Med techs were thorough and accurate with medication. We got our meds on time. Our administration were always kind and dependable. I will always call this my home.
