Key Review Excerpts
“Since under new management, there has been a very positive change. My aunt is very happy and I see a change in her behavior.”
“The food is terrible, the staff either forgets to give my mom her medication or they give her only some of it some days, and they refuse to let her manage her own meds.”
“This place is one of the nastiest facilities I’ve ever stepped foot in, it smells there’s no cleanliness whatsoever and they have a humongous issue with bedbugs”
