These current public-data fields deserve follow-up with the facility and the official Medicare record. They are not a clinical risk score or a substitute for an in-person assessment.

“The weekly nurses were very good and Mom was taken good care of ! The weekend nurses for the most tried but were short handed ! The food was very good ! Don't expect to be filled in on how your loved ones are doing or getting any updates on them like they tell you they will be doing !”
“The CNA's (Vannessa, Diamond, Jade, Brielle, and NYESHA, aka Nye, who demonstrated regard for my husband and I. The Nursing staff is up to date w/ Pharmacology and drug interactions. Meghan, Scott, and particularly AMBER is terriffIc.”
“They tried to give her the wrong persons meds, many times they tried to give her substitute meds because they didnt have her correct meds. Many days they skipped PT or even having her dress. Call lights went forever on weekends unanswered.”
