Key Review Excerpts
“My father came from another nursing home toTranscendent and since coming he has been very happy with all the services provided. From my perspective as a healthcare worker I have found the nursing staff to be outstanding and truly caring deeply for my father.”
“Last Fall when he got out of the hospital, they didn’t give him 9 medications that were prescribed to him and it put him back in the hospital.”
“I had one nurse stealing my pain medication and giving me some other type of medication she was also doing it with other patients instead of them firing her they sent her to their other facility”
