Key Review Excerpts
“The physical and occupational therapy team worked with me tirelessly. They babied me, praised me and bullied me . I not only learned to walk again, I lost a big chunk of weight and gained a whole lot of self confidence.”
“I visited the facilty before my Mother was moved to Diversicare from the hospital and everyone is so welcoming and knowledgeable. They made the transition from the hospital to the facility go as smoothly as possible.”
“I am a current resident. I would NOT suggest putting your loved ones here. There is a med aid falsifying pain level, a legal document, there is a nurse who cusses at people and nothing is done.”
Reported nursing hours are daily averages per resident. They do not describe a specific shift or guarantee one-to-one care.
