Key Review Excerpts
“My mother was in there and almost died for three days she was complaining of severe pain. They told her that she was fine and her vitals were fine so the third day my sister and I called an ambulance which ticked off Donna one of the nurses and she told me that’s on you, not me I outrank any EMT and there’s nothing wrong with her.”
“Within 2 weeks, he was up on his feet walking several steps and feeding himself again. The administrator and nursing team met with me individually to make sure his needs were met as we expected.”
“My 93 year old neighbor was sent here for rehab after breaking her hip. They're SEVERELY understaffed. Call lights on for hours. No answer at the main number most of the time.”
