Key Review Excerpts
“As a registered nurse, the care provided to my grandmother at sanctuary was impressive. The facility was always clean, staff very helpful, and she progressed well from her therapy.”
“This place is thee worst place to put your love ones . If you love your family please DONT NOT I MEAN DO NOT PLACE THEM THERE. It’s old and outdated and they are short staffed”
“I was in this facility little over a month to be rehabilitated after my accident. The staff goes above and beyond for care. I honestly couldn't have gotten better care than what they provided.”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.
