Key Review Excerpts

The nurses knew nothing about insulin 2 times have way to much insulin and my brain sugar dropped to 40 my son was there and thought I was dying I couldn't move or talking was out of it.

Rehab patient · 2023☆☆☆☆

The therapy team was good. My advice is do not sent your love one there. The meals were of poor quality. Most days I had to bring meals in, so hubby could eat without getting sick.

Long-term resident's family · 2024★★☆☆☆

Mgmt here really needs to figure out how to not leave residents waiting an hour or more when they hit the call light to go to the bathroom etc. that is not acceptable and it's everyday all-day.

The most recent October 2024 inspection found 22 deficiencies spanning care planning, dining services, and facility safety, while medication management problems have persisted since 2022. All deficiencies show correction dates, but the pattern of repeated issues in core care areas warrants careful consideration during any visit.
