Key Review Excerpts
“My mother was admitted here in September. There were multiple times they did not bring her food, I had to call to have food brought to her. She fell on the floor and used her call button, no one came.”
“The staff are overwhelmed as they have over 20 patients per nurse and cna. There are certain staff that do not listen to the patients needs or they refuse to help the patient which can cause life threatening issues.”
“The facility beds and furniture are dated; however this is outweighed by the people working there.”
