Admins change often - do your due diligence. But our experience has been very positive so far. My Mother enjoys being there and has others to talk and sit with.

Bristol Manor of Lamar did a great job overall. It was a nice looking, well kept, clean facility, and the people all seemed very friendly. They also serve some very good home-cooked food!
