Key Review Excerpts
“My daughter needed a short term Emergency place for her recovery of a broken ankle. Lincoln Crawford has been a dream come true. The place is nice n clean. Food is good and All staff have been caring n helpful.”
“I appreciate the way the employees interact with the residents and with each other. Every time I visit my husband I am greeted by name and with sincere interest in how I am doing.”
“TAKE YOUR LOVED ONE HOME!!! Do not send THEM here unless you want them to decompensate on levels. We tried to work with the circumstance, which are tremendous. Open applesauce containers on dirty med carts, filthy bathroom, no guard rails on bed, no water pitchers for individual residents.”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.

Some summaries, interpretations, suggested questions, and pricing research are AI-generated or AI-assisted and may contain errors or omit important context. Listings do not constitute endorsement, recommendation, or advertisement, and we do not accept payment for placement. Families should verify all details directly with the facility and the original sources linked above before making any care decisions.
