Key Review Excerpts
“While some nurses and aides were attentive, others showed a disturbing lack of empathy, especially toward vulnerable residents.”
“I never saw a stable elderly person deteriorate so FAST. His caregiver 16 years I was hospitalized , as a result he was placed in Bayberry on the rush….Not a good experience! I found his hygiene to be horrifying”
“The entire nursing staff led by the DON Kasandra is pretty awesome! There’s open communication and can answer questions anytime.”
