Key Review Excerpts

My dad was there for respite care for 5 days and on day 2 they decided that according to a policy there, they couldn't give his 1 medication for bipolar. Decisions were made to stop medication without discussing or informing us.

Respite care family member · 2020☆☆☆☆

Allegedly there's a lot of thefts going on from the patients while they are asleep or out of their room. Please be kind and get cameras for residents and their belongings.
