My Uncle was in there less than 24 hours. Plus the food was awful, 2 T.V'S hitting eachother, 8x8 room with the curtains drawn and a 90 year old burping and farting in the same room. This is not a physical therapy place it's a nursing home. To boot the photos don't do justice for this place.

This place is the type of nursing home that you hear horror stories about the neglect. I wouldn’t wish my worst enemy to end up here, nevermind a loved one.

A friend of mine stayed here and had a great experience. Friendly staff and a clean building, even with all the winter storms.

My mother was in this nursing home and because of their neglect my mother is no longer with us. She passed away because of the neglect of the facility. They should’ve been sending her to the hospital because she was so sick instead, they didn’t until it was too late.

I can’t even put one star because they don’t deserve any stars. My mother was there and she ended up with bedsores, head wounds, falls all the time and a broken femur while they never called me about the night it happened. I found out the next day that I went to see her. I sat on her bed and she screamed. They tried to tell me she was just sore from falling out of bed but I knew something wasn’t right. I had her sent to hospital to be checked out and she had a broken femur. My mother also was going to the hospital to have her bedsore checked and cleaned because it was bad she was supposed to go back to hospital to have them treat her bedsore again but she never made is back. My mom passed away a few months after breaking her femur. I was there everyday to sit with my mom and I have so many pictures of my mom always hurt. Not to mention I’d go in and she wouldn’t have anything to drink, no call button by her a lot of times or her phone not next to her so she could call me. My mom couldn’t walk and had to be moved by the hoyer lift. I’d go in to see her and she would be soaking wet from pee that had gone through her brief and hoyer pad on to the chair. I saw so many things that were just wrong. I will never again put a loved one in a nursing home. So I give a 0 review. Be careful putting your loved ones in here long term.
