Key Review Excerpts
“My mother was here in skilled care and overall I was happy with the care she received.”
“At the rehabilitation center, my grandmother received care that was absolutely appalling, and I have never been more disgusted. My grandmother, who is completely coherent and cognizant, was terrified to ask for help or to be bathed or fed for fear of the staff being 'mean' to her.”
“My mom is on Roosevelt 4th.floor. they r very short staff. Her room& bathroom were a mess, dirty chair & bed pads. Visited at 10am& she was still in bed.”
This facility meets both EveryPlace staffing reference benchmarks. Higher staffing is generally associated with stronger day-to-day care.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.
