Key Review Excerpts
“My grandma was in this facility for Memory Care. They were caught not waking her up to eat, they would let her sleep through every dinner that she was already asleep... They also weren't brushing her teeth, so she got very bad thrush and couldn't swallow.”
“My dad stayed here for rehab. Everyone was so nice and when things changed in his health they called me right away. The staff took great care of my dad”
