Key Review Excerpts
“My 1st time visiting DayBreak NH, it didn't have a bad smell as you entered the Center. The staff was very helpful & friendly. It looks very clean on inside & overall I was very impressed with staff & my friend looked like she was well taken care of as a patient.”
“They don’t protect their residents they allow other residents to bear on people and don’t call the police. They are rude to the residents. They falsify documents when asked to send a resident to the hospital for medical treatment.”
“Changed name multiple times due to neglect and abuse allegations and investigations. Would not recommend. My family's experience was horrifying and criminal.”
