Key Review Excerpts
“While in the medical facility, Hallowell, my mother supposedly fell and hit her head in 2 places but staff did not call a doctor, ambulance nor a family member for more than 5 hours.”
“The staff has frequently not followed the protocol for administering her medications. On a more serious note, this 91 yr old woman has twice been left outside in 90 plus weather. The staff does not respond to the alarm that she carries.”
“Mom has lived there independently for several years and now in Assited Living apartment. Beautiful grounds, caring staff, many Cultural activities and excellent food options made it an easy transition to an active senior community.”
This facility meets both EveryPlace staffing reference benchmarks. Higher staffing is generally associated with stronger day-to-day care.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.
