What this means for your family

While the facility has a long-standing reputation for compassionate staff and engaging activities, the recent report of bed bugs and management friction is a critical red flag. We strongly recommend conducting a thorough tour of the specific unit your family member would occupy and asking management directly about their current pest control protocols and recent administrative turnover.
