What this means for your family

52 reviews on Google“Reviewers are deeply divided, with many praising the facility for its excellent physical therapy, kind nursing staff, and recent improvements under new management. However, there are serious, recurring allegations of medical neglect, including the development of stage 4 pressure wounds and failure to follow medical instructions. Families should be aware of significant discrepancies between the highly positive experiences in rehab and the severe allegations of neglect in long-term care.”
