Key Review Excerpts
“My mom is really comfortable here! Lots of community and activities. Like a private residential club with step up facilities if you eventually need them. The one meal I had on property was delicious (calzones…so good). Pool/gym looked nice - everything is sparkling clean just kind of old fashioned in its aesthetic. Lovely grounds and every staff person was friendly!”
“I have live here and the staff is very caring and treat the residents with respect. Givens is like a family and I love it.There have been problems but they are listening to the residents and helping solving them with caring and loving tenderness and respect.”
“We had the pleasure of dinning at Terrene. We did not know what to expect but it all came together with the help and knowledge of Brady (our server). The Filet was cooked to perfection and how do they do that wonderfullness that is their Scallop dish!!!”

The facility failed to ensure medications were administered according to the orders of a licensed prescribing practitioner. Specifically, for one resident, Ibuprofen was being administered on a scheduled daily basis despite physician orders to change the medication to 'as needed' (prn) status.
The facility failed to ensure medications were administered as ordered by a licensed prescribing practitioner for Resident #3. Specifically, the resident was administered Diclofenac 75mg twice daily while also receiving routine doses of Ibuprofen, despite these being both NSAIDs that should not be taken together. Additionally, there were instances where telephone orders were not properly documented via fax or written physician orders.
