Key Review Excerpts
“The care is very good and the food was amazingly good too! The physical therapy staff does very well although that department is stretched thin in my opinion.”
“The entire staff are always friendly and helpful . When they come anywhere near my mother they engage so sweetly with her and always leave her with a smile.”
“She’s left sitting in her wheelchair for hours on end before someone puts her back in bed. 4 days to get her antibiotics for her UTI. the attitude on these nurses is disgusting.”
