Key Review Excerpts
“The staff here is super interactive and kind and are always willing to lend a hand if any of the residents or guests ask. The place stays cleaned and the residents always have plenty of opportunities to get out and about and the freedom to do what they want within reason.”
“The facility environmental team is top tier. Staff was very professional and pleasant. CNA Sharon and the RN on 2nd and 3rd shift was pleasant to work with, helped on the floor and was knowledgeable.”
“I am so thankful that she was at Azeala Gardens and surrounded by caring and professional staff, who truly love their patients.”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.
