Key Review Excerpts
“The facility itself is clean and beautiful, but what truly sets it apart is the way the caregivers treated my father—with dignity, kindness, and honor until his very last breath.”
“The nursing team has been incredibly attentive and compassionate, and I would especially like to recognize Sylvanie Ribeiro for her outstandi”
“Beware! Do not send your parents here unless you want them to decline. They are so under staffed, they are the rudest group of nurses and they take an hour to get to you when a call button is pushed.”
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.
