What this means for your family
Given the serious allegations of neglect regarding nutrition, hydration, and medication management, we strongly advise families to conduct an unannounced visit and observe patient care firsthand. While some staff are praised, the consistency of care appears to be a major concern that requires thorough investigation before choosing this facility.
