What this means for your family
While Fair View has a strong reputation for compassionate end-of-life and palliative care, the most recent feedback is concerning. If you are considering this facility, I strongly recommend observing the staff-to-patient interaction during a visit and asking management specifically how they address response times for call buttons and patient assistance requests.
