Key Review Excerpts
“The staff is particularly dedicated. Care meetings with all departments covered all issues, and that included discussions with an expert regarding my mother's increasing dementia.”
“The staff provided a calm within the storm and went above and beyond in every way including care, PT, communication, guidance, obtaining outside professional consults and assisting with transition on to the next phase of care.”
“My mother was a patient there for a week following an invasive back surgery. The staff were nasty, meds were always late, the food was disgusting and her linens were not changed for a week.”
Total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmark, though RN coverage meets its reference level. Ask how aides are staffed for daily tasks such as bathing and mobility.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.
