Key Review Excerpts
“The Transitional Care Unit has major communication problems. They gave my family one week to find a different living situation for my Mom with barely any assistance.”
“I am coming here because I want competent and aggressive rehab. I live by myself and need to get back on my feet asap. Twice per day I received OT and PT.”
“At the opposite end of the spectrum was the nursing care. We had issues on a daily basis with not receiving a shower or bath for several days.”
