Key Review Excerpts
“The nursing staff was excellent, and my mother regularly lauded their efforts. It's not easy taking care of an old broken-down body, but the nurses realized that, especially early on, her mind was not broken down.”
“The medical team of doctors, nurses, and therapists helped manage my wife’s condition and dealt with her expertly and with compassion whenever required.”
“The nursing staff were dismissive and blamed the patient for their medical needs. Medical procedures were Not followed. Instead of having their medical needs met, our loved one was repeatedly dismissed by nursing staff.”
Total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmark, though RN coverage meets its reference level. Ask how aides are staffed for daily tasks such as bathing and mobility.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.
