Key Review Excerpts
“The people who work here really care about thier patients. They work really hard to make sure everyone is properly taken care of.”
“I was in rehab for 7 days. The billing for my medication were for 30 days thru a pharmacy service. I have tried to reach someone to correct this.”
“This place is very short staffed and you can NEVER get through to the nurses station and NO one ever returns phone calls.”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.

EveryPlace is a research directory. Facility information is compiled from public sources — Medicare.gov, state licensing portals, Google Places, and publicly available street-level imagery. Some summaries, interpretations, suggested questions, and pricing research are AI-generated or AI-assisted and may contain errors or omit important context. Listings do not constitute endorsement, recommendation, or advertisement, and we do not accept payment for placement. Families should verify all details directly with the facility and the original sources linked above before making any care decisions. See our Research Policy for our editorial standards, correction process, and image-removal policy.
