Key Review Excerpts
“The nursing team was compassionate and attentive, always taking the time to address any concerns and keep us updated on her progress. The physical therapy department was outstanding.”
“Nursing care is terrible. Residents left in dirty depends for hours. While visiting, I would see such terrible care. No one answers phones at the nursing station, even when sitting there on their cell phone.”
“My 104 year old aunt was admitted to the nursing facility in November 2023. She was there for 10 days during which time we observed care that was nonexistent.”
