Key Review Excerpts
“I can't say enough good things about the beautiful facilities, welcoming atmosphere, tasty food and, especially, the caring nursing and support staff.”
“My mother skips as many meals as she can because the food is so horrible..even several people with severe dementia look at the food in complete disgust.”
“There is absolutely no communication between the staff, the resident and their families.”
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.
