Key Review Excerpts
“The care my huband received was beyond poor. And after making two complaints it got even worse. His bed was changed once in 3 weeks, he is on a special diet and with each meal he received foods he should not have.”
“The Arbors staff refused to release medical information for a transport back home holding the patient hostage. Attempts to get an ambulance or amulet home became a fight and the administration became involved.”
“Arbors at Delaware goes above and beyond to care for all residents. Exceptional nursing care, physical, occupational, and speech therapies.”
