Key Review Excerpts
“The nursing team was attentive, and the physical and occupational therapists worked hard to make sure she stayed motivated.”
“The residents were listening to a variety of live beautiful music (someone with an amazing voice was singing). From time to time staff members came around to dance/clap to stimulate the residents.”
“My mother was only there for a week and was in horrific condition. I had her transferred as soon as I could. They violate hippa. Her room was labeled with another patients name.”
