Key Review Excerpts
“My brother is bedridden and he's never turned Q2 hrs, his nurse told me and my sister that he would be turned if they have time to turn him.”
“The nurse call light that is outside of his room does not work. The only way he gets help is if he yells, which he does not like to do.”
“Brandon the respiratory therapist told me on day one that he would get the fluid away from his heart and lungs since we had been dealing with it for 5 months HE DID IT!!!”
