It's a mad house only reason I this place gets a 2 is for tha ones that give there best everyday.dont get me wrong most tha staff is very nice but some seem to have problems cleaning after themselves or just tha lack of caring from putting in so much work ànd never being seen for it. Tha other thing is tha food a person can only eat so much oatmeal and potatoes but these two things seem to be on a daily base here I have found some things to eat that are enjoyable but most of it is ridiculous I don't see how they get away with feeding it to humans. IDK I'm still a resident here I only hope things get better

Horrible Nursing Home. My grandfather has been there about 6 weeks or so. Has not had running water in his room nor have I ever even seen toilet paper in his restroom. They want him to use the public restroom in the hallway. Oh and by the way last time I was there the toilet had poop on the bottom side of the seat. Gross.
