Key Review Excerpts
“My mother was at Hallmark Manor for 2 1/2 days before her death, and the staff at Hallmark Manor did their best to keep her comfortable, minimize any pain she felt, and to care for her needs as she passed.”
“The day staff is kind and helpful for the demands of their job. The activities are good also for the residents. For people that are mobile and can move on their own it is a decent place. If you have a loved one that can’t then I would suggest to look around.”
“I witnessed neglect everywhere, I saw patients calling out for help being ignored. When I arrived one day my mother was calling out for help I arrived she was left without oxygen for unknown amount of time and was loosing her vision”
