Key Review Excerpts
“As a family member of a patient, I found the staff to be very friendly and helpful. Benjamin was a great advocate for placement, and Grace was a compassionate social worker who was always very responsive to questions and requests.”
“An octagenarian dancer has been detained in this facility for over a year and three months for speaking truth to power. She is denied visitors unless within a narrow 2pm to 5pm band of time unless with conservator approval, however the conservators never call back..She is denied vegetarian diet which she would prefer and never receives her mail.”
“Great place to live and recover. I love ❤ the staff here and get quietly well with the residents here and I hope to be discharged from here very soon”
