Key Review Excerpts
“The staff at Ridge Crest exceeded our highest expectations. From the care managers, social workers, physical therapists, nurses, aids and maintenance staff. Each person was professional, competent and respectful.”
“Daytime staff is generally very good and attentive, although long wait times are not unusual. Buzzer system should allow them to ask the issue and then respond, not just put patients in some kind of queue.”
“The staff was amazing with communication and keeping me up-to-date on any doctors appointments or emergencies that occurred while he was there. And they were very thorough making sure that he was prepared enough to be in his own house.”
This facility meets both EveryPlace staffing reference benchmarks. Higher staffing is generally associated with stronger day-to-day care.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.
