Key Review Excerpts
“The staff truly cared for my mom and I can never repay them.”
“The nurses will turn off call lights without helping the patient, doesn’t give medication regularly, does not change bandages on wounds causing life threatening infections.”
“Every time I would check in on my father, he was not eating his food and there was no one there helping him. His death certificate collaborates this that he died of malnutrition.”
