Because 0 isn’t an option I’m giving one star which extremely generous considering the circumstances. My father was placed into your care to get better and recover from a stroke and brain bleed. And you left him to rot and almost die. Physical therapy was practically none existent. You never checked his blood sugar knowing damn well he was diabetic. You never checked his blood pressure and the food was horrible and not what should be served to elderly people or those in recovery. The facility was poorly kept.during his time there he developed pneumonia and you knew but left him to die in his bed. Only doing something about it when we called and begged to have him sent to the E.R. Do not send your loved ones here. This place should be shut down
