Key Review Excerpts
“The nursing staff was amazing and so helpful when she needed anything. The communication with any changes from the administration to family was great, keeping us up to date on anything and everything.”
“After a horrible stay at Allied, I moved my dad to Greenridge. What an amazing 🤩 difference!! Within a month, he was already mentally 100% better!!”
“This facility allows for the family to bring simple things to make life easier for her. They have suggested on her arrival an electric recliner they have on site not being used to help with her non weight bearing healing process.”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.
