Key Review Excerpts
“The nurses and aids were very friendly, kept me posted on her health issues and took great care of my mom.”
“Some staff nice, others extremely rude. We spoke with a social worker about visitation policies post-covid. We were specifically told her granddaughter could visit, without physical contact keeping a social distance, only to have some rude nurse tell us that’s not the policy.”
