Key Review Excerpts
“The staff at the Plains are very attentive to her unique needs and accommodate her with kindness, empathy and caring all the time!”
“Food came to table ice cold and congealed. Mom states the food is often almost inedible. It looked like reheated leftovers. Pasta was chewy. Inexcusable for what your tenants pay.”
“I do get a little concerned about turnover, however.”
