Key Review Excerpts
“Do not put your loved one in this Don’t Care Facility. Sherry and Kelsey are the worst. They’re lazy and they lie. My loved one had gifts stolen, money stolen, clothes stolen. They left my loved one sitting in her pee and not bathing her or making eating a priority.”
“Has the state finally shut this facility down ? Have been trying to reach a friend here....no one answers the phone...left a voicemail to call me back...no response”
“They took very good care of my father the last year of his life. Nurses friendly. Many residents are walking the halls and it provided a dynamic atmosphere.”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.
