Key Review Excerpts
“The staff was amazing, treated me as well as the other patients with dignity and respect. They were very compassionate toward me and helped me with anything I needed or any questions I had.”
“The doctor at the ER said she was severely dehydrated, to the point that it damaged her heart and kidneys. A bit of backstory here, we were only allowed an hour per day to see her due to Covid, but every time I did, I had to ask for something to drink for mom,”
“Very caring staff, gives updates on the care every time something changes”
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.
