Key Review Excerpts
“The staff is top notch and always treated our mom with the utmost respect and kindness. I will never forget hearing my mom and her nurses talking and laughing together; it made all the difference in the world to us knowing she was safe and loved.”
“My uncle told me he had assistance to use the bathroom but noone came back for 35 minutes when I visit a woman just yelling help noone came I was there for 30 minutes”
“Housekeeping is superficial and generally lacking; the place is totally filthy around the edges. Maintenance is practically nonexistent: the air conditioner in the room does not work, and they refused to fix it even in the muggiest, hottest weather.”
