Key Review Excerpts
“It is absolutely disgusting! Smells like urine and feces because they do not chance the patients. They make them lay in it. It’s heart breaking for the ones with Dementia because they can’t speak up for themselves.”
“My father was at Autumn Breeze in January after suffering from a stroke. I am writing this review to commend the entire Autumn Breeze staff especially the Rehab team for working with my father and getting him strong enough to come home with minimal care needed.”
“The room my father was in had dried blood on the curtains. My father was at this facility for 2 nights and on the 1st night he fell out of the bed, his pants were stolen and his wound care boot he came from the hospital with was stolen.”
