Key Review Excerpts
“Upon admittance to this new facility, the nursing staff discovered horrendous sores and open wounds. These sores are a result from months of neglect while a resident at Gold City Convalesce.”
“Medications will not be given , wound care will not be provided (wounds not even being washed, just wrapped in plastic for months), the meals provided will be infrequent and will not meet dietary restrictions.”
“The staff that I speak to every time I come here is very aware of what is going on with my grandmother. They can update me without looking at any notes or charts, and they are very friendly.”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.

EveryPlace is a research directory. Facility information is compiled from public sources — Medicare.gov, state licensing portals, Google Places, and publicly available street-level imagery. Some summaries, interpretations, suggested questions, and pricing research are AI-generated or AI-assisted and may contain errors or omit important context. Listings do not constitute endorsement, recommendation, or advertisement, and we do not accept payment for placement. Families should verify all details directly with the facility and the original sources linked above before making any care decisions. See our Research Policy for our editorial standards, correction process, and image-removal policy.
