Key Review Excerpts
“PT and occupational therapy is about the best thing that that place has got going for them. When you push the button for help, you don’t get it. It takes hours on end to get help.”
“Nice new place that is really clean but the care for the patients is pitiful. My father in law was there and the first night he was there a staff member called and ask if somebody could come sit with him because their staffing was short.”
