Key Review Excerpts
“The PT and OT did a great job working with her to get her back on her feet. The nursing staff was wonderful and very attentive and took great care of her.”
“I am always kept informed when mom has any new medical issues or incidents. They always contact me in a timely fashion.”
“The first day we were there not one person checked on him for over Three hours. Next morning we get a phone call that they found him on the floor and they didn’t know how long he was laying there.”
Total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmark, though RN coverage meets its reference level. Ask how aides are staffed for daily tasks such as bathing and mobility.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.
