What this means for your family

While some families report excellent rehab outcomes and compassionate care, there is a concerning pattern of reports regarding medical neglect and poor communication. We strongly advise families to visit frequently, maintain a clear, written log of all medical instructions, and ensure you have a direct line of communication with the nursing staff rather than relying solely on the administration.

Key Review Excerpts

My mother was placed there for the end life of a long struggle with Alzheimer's disease. Our family experience was a very positive one. After my years of working in this profession, I went in with high expectations and that is exactly what my mother received, excellent care.

Memory care family member · 2017★★★★★

My father is a paraplegic and therefore can not get himself out of the beds. They left him in bed in the same position for so long that his legs will not unbend and he is in the fetal position at all times.

Long-term resident's family · 2022☆☆☆☆

There’s a total disconnect between administration and nursing staff! Make sure you are clear on each “individual” patient’s plan of care!
