Key Review Excerpts
“The workers do NOT attend to their patients. My loved one who spent time here never had any help. When they needed to use the restroom, they would have to wait over an HOUR.”
“The last cleaning staff that was there actually stole money right out of my mom’s purse while she was in the seating area waiting for her apartment to be cleaned.”
“The staff and everyone was extremely kind and compassionate. Sam/DON did an excellent job addressing his needs and keeping us informed along the way, she clearly takes the time to know each resident.”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.
