Key Review Excerpts
“The activity director worked with me on a separate occasion, I called to set up a nail painting station for whoever wanted to be pampered and she was so so quick to jump”
“A few weeks into his stay, the nursing staff and nursing director failed to acknowledge an untreated UTI that lead to a critical hospital stay due to my dad being so sedated on Xanax that he was too lethargic to tell anyone about his UTI.”
“I would like to thank everyone for the wonderful treatment I received during my stay at Rose Trail. I loved the nurses and therapy team for all of their hard work helping me to recover from hip surgery.”
