Key Review Excerpts
“My mom is in rehab section. The staff is excellent to her. I saw doctor when she was admitted and not since. U can only use their doctor, however. Sign on wall says patient has right to their own doctor.”
“My mother passed away last week after 15 months of being admitted here. She did not receive the care she deserved, she was neglected, and starved to death.”
“My mother was there for a short time in which she was transferred from another facility. Sheila's honesty about her current condition allowed her to get hospice and less suffering for my mother.”
