Key Review Excerpts
“My sister has been in the Health Care Center for 1.5 years. She is always clean and well groomed. Her room is also very clean and her laundry is taken care of promptly.”
“Do not stay here if you need timely pain medication. Their personal buzzer system is a cruel joke. The aide responds, you tell her you need pain medication, she cancels your buzzer and supposedly goes to tell the nurse who can administer it.”
“My father had been a pt there over a month. Food is horrible and meat can hardly be cut with knife. Myself and family would always bring him food and kept in refrigerator to hear and eat as wanted.”
