Key Review Excerpts
“The care & dignity given my Mom could not of been better. Everyone was helpful & caring. Unfortunately, Housekeeping is failing. VERY noticeable difference.”
“The care he has received isn't the greatest. Unless your planning on visiting as possible or live close I would not recommend. You're paying top dollars and no one ever follows up with you unless you are persistent.”
“The upper management on the other hand does not care, have no sympathy at all and then was disrespectful after my mom passed away.”
