Key Review Excerpts
“The staff, particularly the night staff used to sleep in my room on a chair and the body's indentation was there I reported it and I was told I was paranoid.”
“Whatever you do, do not send a loved one here especially if they suffer from Dementia. They are not equipped or trained to deal with this horrific disease.”
“The nurses are amazing and have treated my father with grace and dignity. The food is great. I’m not having to buy 3 meals a day or wait hours for someone to answer a call light.”
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.
