Key Review Excerpts
“The therapists were very supportive and helpful and knowledgeable! My recovery was spectacular and I contributed it to the wonderful care I got!”
“There were occasional times he had to wait for some care aspects, but we always felt looked after and knew sometimes there isn't enough staff when lots of things occur at the same time.”
“I am visiting a close friend here and I’m taken back at the conditions. Next to the sink are pads with feces on them. The floor is covered with crumbs…I do not recommend this facility!!!”
This facility meets both EveryPlace staffing reference benchmarks. Higher staffing is generally associated with stronger day-to-day care.
