What this means for your family

While the facility's therapy department is highly regarded for successful rehabilitation, the recent increase in reports regarding neglect and slow response times is concerning. We strongly recommend that you visit during off-hours to observe staffing levels and ask management specifically how they handle call-light response times and communication with family members.
