Key Review Excerpts
“My mom fell at Regency soon after she arrived in September 2024 and NO ONE noticed she had a broken hip. She was there for nearly two months and no one wondered why she kept getting weaker or why one leg was suddenly shorter than the other.”
“I would give zero stars if I could. My mother was admitted there for well over 10 months and in that time they stole her clothes and gave her cheaper knock off clothes. They stoled her Ruby and diamond birthstone ring.”
