I must say Allied is an Amazing place for your loved one. I am so impressed over the entire experience. Very friendly caring staff, great communication and answers within the same day if not sooner.

Long-term resident's family · 2024★★★★★

My mom just got discharged. When she got into the car- she smelled. Her diaper was full of feces. She wasn't changed before being sent home.
