Key Review Excerpts
“In the past year April 2023 the change in administration and new Director of Nursing has improved the staffing and the resident care both in Assisting Living and Skilled Nursing.”
“The amount of staff is so poor in this facility. The least they can do is hire more people to control the resident to caregiver ratio. All this money my family pays and I always see the same people working nonstop.”
“They are always short staff which means your loved one is not being cared for properly. I have proof of unsafe conditions not only for the residents but also the employees.”
Reported nursing hours are daily averages per resident. They do not describe a specific shift or guarantee one-to-one care.
