Key Review Excerpts
“My Mom has been at Strattord pines for almost 4 yrs now. The Nurses & CNA's have always taken great care of her and I've never had any concerns about her care that's been given.”
“My biggest concern is not being able to talk to a nurse or doctor when I’m concerned about my brother- especially after 5pm. I feel it is important to have phone access to the facility 24 hours”
“No one comes when you press the call light to use the restroom. People yelling from their rooms. Rehab consisted of 30 minutes twice a week. Food is awful. Definitely understaffed”
