What this means for your family
While many families report a caring and clean environment, there is a recurring pattern of serious allegations regarding patient neglect and hygiene. If you are considering this facility, we strongly recommend conducting an unannounced visit to inspect the cleanliness of the rooms and observing staff interactions with residents firsthand. Ask specifically about their protocols for monitoring patients with complex medical needs to ensure they are not falling through the cracks.
