What this means for your family
While the facility offers effective physical therapy and engaging activities, the recurring reports of staff neglect and poor communication are significant red flags. We strongly recommend that families conduct unannounced visits and ask specifically about the facility's protocols for medication administration and how they handle missing personal items.
