Key Review Excerpts
“From Day 1 that my mom was admitted for rehabilitation; the staff treated my mom well. She felt safe in the nursing home environment and loved all the staff.”
“My husband received rehab here after suffering a stroke, and I can’t say enough good things about this facility. From the moment he arrived, the staff made us feel welcome and cared for.”
“My family members said they don't answer call lights and that the place is dirty. How do you not know where a resident is in your facility”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.
