What this means for your family
While the physical therapy department is frequently praised for its effectiveness, the facility has significant, recurring issues with cleanliness and basic resident care. We strongly advise families to conduct unannounced visits during weekends or evenings to observe the actual level of staffing and hygiene, as multiple reports suggest these are areas of critical failure.
