My 1st time visiting DayBreak NH, it didn't have a bad smell as you entered the Center. The staff was very helpful & friendly. It looks very clean on inside & overall I was very impressed with staff & my friend looked like she was well taken care of as a patient.

This is a wonderful facility with fun & caring staff. Negative reviews to the contrary are wrong & misleading. Go see the place for yourself, and you'll see how nice it is and how great the staff is. Residents are really cared for here.

They don’t protect their residents they allow other residents to bear on people and don’t call the police. They are rude to the residents. They falsify documents when asked to send a resident to the hospital for medical treatment. This is not a place where you want your loved one’s to be housed

Changed name multiple times due to neglect and abuse allegations and investigations. Would not recommend. My family's experience was horrifying and criminal. Take care of your loved ones do not trust these people.
