Key Review Excerpts
“My Dad was a patient at the Gardens back in January of 2025 and the staff were so amazing and took stellar care of my Dad. He was discharged to home and has had some off and on Medical issues since then.”
“The only downside, was that when she had her final visit with Dr. Kaushal Nanavati, he did not notice that one of the staples from her surgery had not been removed. That over site was not discovered until she was home getting a shower.”
“My 92 yo grandma who has dementia fell twice in one day here. I was not contacted the first time it happened and when I asked her nurse what we can do to prevent her from falling in the future, she told me I could hire a person to come watch her.”
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.
