Key Review Excerpts
“I’ve tried several times to call her (again she isn’t able to move on her own so i know she can’t physically answer.) so I call the main desk phone and they act to helpless in simply just handing my grandmother the phone so I can talk to her and do regular check ins.”
“You don't get your meds for two or three hours after you ask for them... if you have a pick line and your meds are done running through you sit for an hour to three hours with it still being hooked up...”
“But, if you do need help getting back on your feet Communicare of Cliffton is a Great place to stay.”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.
