What this means for your family

Key Review Excerpts
“The staff and nurses were extremely responsive, medications were always given correctly and on time, and we were promptly notified of any changes.”
“The theft of mail, belongings, jewelry, electronics and clothing is rampant in the building. We 've made multiple police reports but the staff we believe did it is still there.”
“The PT, OT and the aides and Nursing staff are excellent caring people. That being said, they are seriously short staffed and many of the residents have fallen in the bathroom and out of bed causing broken hips because their is not enough staff to take care of the residents.”
