Key Review Excerpts
“The Kahl therapists were unbelievably skilled and nurturing…they got her up and walking right away, although my wife didn’t think she was capable of doing so.”
“She was not given food and because she was so weak, ended up wetting herself. She tried to call them - and no one would come. It was not until family came to see her that they realized she was not being fed, and sitting in her own urine.”
“My dad was on the long term care unit for about 7 months. The staff treated him with so much dignity and respect. They treated him like they would treat their own family member.”
Total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmark, though RN coverage meets its reference level. Ask how aides are staffed for daily tasks such as bathing and mobility.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.
