Key Review Excerpts

The team that was assigned to me treated me as though I was family instead of just a patient and I'm leaving here today with a lot of new friends then I had when I got here.

Rehab patient · 2023★★★★★

13 patients, 1CNA, 2 LPNs with their personal cell phones equals lack of patient care, inattentiveness, possible negligence, no patience, mistreatment, etc.

Family member · 2023☆☆☆☆

My mother declined 2 days after her admissions at LEC, causing her to be put on a ventilator. Judging their nonchalant attitude with family explains why.
