Key Review Excerpts
“The nursing staff was outstanding and consistently attentive to his needs. They were proactive in communicating concerns, always returned my calls in a timely manner, and made me feel confident.”
“The dietary department is awful, other than breakfast, which no one can mess that up. The food is horrible. It states that you can request substitutes if don’t like what’s on the menu. However, every single time I rarely got what I requested.”
“The staff truly care about the residents/patients and you can feel the love. The care they provide is phenomenal. My grandma has been in other rehab facilities in the area, but this one goes above and beyond to provide the best care possible.”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.
