What this means for your family
While many families report excellent, compassionate care, there is a clear pattern of inconsistent service and slow response times in recent years. We strongly recommend that you visit the specific unit your loved one will occupy and ask for a direct demonstration of how call lights are managed and how often rooms are cleaned.

Key Review Excerpts
“The staff at Ramsey cares about the physical and emotional needs of their residents. I’ve seen only compassion and kindness. After dealing with another memory care Ramsey has been a breath of fresh air.”
“My mom spent 2 weeks here for stroke rehab. She was rarely moved or encouraged to do things for herself. She got a bedsore in those 2 weeks.”
“It took them 23 minutes to respond and 53 minutes no one returned, no one in the hall and no one at the desk.”
