Zeros across the board! Do not come here! Do not drop your loved one off here my VETERAN uncle was transported to the hospital with e-coli and several other issues under the care of this facility. Horrible conditions ,they took him from us. He was a strong, able man before living here and in one month he deteriorated in health becuase of the conditions and staff .

Roach infestation!! 🪳🪳🪳🪳🪳🪳 My uncle was a resident here, and our experience was extremely concerning. Over the course of several months, he was in and out of the hospital. When he was finally evaluated more thoroughly, we were told he had wounds that had not been properly managed. Communication and accountability were also major issues. We were informed that his personal belongings were sent with him to the hospital, but when he arrived, he had nothing. His wallet, bank card, and gold chain were missing, and we have not received clear answers about what happened. This situation has been stressful and heartbreaking for our family. I strongly encourage anyone considering this facility to do thorough research, ask detailed questions, and stay closely involved in their loved one’s care.

If ZERO STARS were an option, that is exactly what I would give this horrible place. The lack of care is astonishing. My sister has been here for 2 years and her health as declined to where she is now in the hospital fighting for her life. When I went to the ER to see her the ER doctors told me that she had bruises down her entire torso, shoulder, face and foot. Turns out her finger and 2 toes were broken. Ginger sent her to the hospital for the cause "having a hard time breathing". Nothing about falling. So the next day I stop by to talk to someone to see if she fell and no one would help me. They left me sitting in the hall way giving me excuses as to why Ginger couldn't come talk to me. I ended up speaking to a friend of my sisters and he confirmed that he was the one that found her on the floor in the corner of her room with a bloody nose and blood coming from her mouth. I end up walking out to get back to the hospital to let the doctors know what I had found out. 30-days later my sister is still in the hospital and I am trying to get information to have her moved and the same thing happens. Ginger avoids all contact and the female that answers the phones is her wingman. Ginger has absolutely no business in this field of work. The CNA's and LVN do not care about the residents here. My sister would get her meds given to her 2 times a day. If she was sleeping they would just put them on her nightstand in cups. Never made sure she took them and with her memory not being as sharp as it was when she first moved in she would take both cups at one time ending up in the hospital over and over with low blood pressure. We also found mice droppings and roaches in her room. When we contacted Ginger via phone and email we never received a response nor did they ever address the issue. They are supposed to wash the residents clothes, and bath them. We noticed that her dirty clothes hamper was full and her dresser was empty and she hadn't been given a bath in over a week. We bathed her and took her clothes home to wash and we found a mouse in with her clothes. We put the mouse in a baggie and showed Ginger still nothing was addressed. Long story short, please take my advise, and do not put your loved one here.
