Key Review Excerpts
“The nurses are great. They take good care of my grandma. (She can be a handful sometimes.). Also the building was very clean. And smelled decent giving the fact that it’s an elderly are facility.”
“My Mother (C. Bumpus) recently came to this facility for rehab. I must say they were wonderful to her. They took very good care of her. She felt welcomed and heard. The staff stayed professional, nice and tended to her needs, they worked well as a team.”
“My grandmother was there for 2 days they cut her phone off wouldn’t help her with her phone. The first day she was there the night nurse and the aid helping the nurse flopped my grandmother over like a fish which hurt her extremely bad.”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.
