My Mom stayed here for a short time for rehab . She was left alone most of time , Noone would answer call buzzer for and hour sometimes , she needed help using pot chairs and pulling up pants when she 1st got there asked for help CNA told her she can do it herself . Widow lock in her room broke , emergency exit blocked with snow . Dementia patients in wheel chairs going up halls to rehab scaring her when she rang call buzzer No one came . I had to literally call nurses station to alert them on situation. Poor care place to be .

My mother-in-law is/was here for skilled nursing. Her health significantly declined, we've tried to get additional testing done and advocate for her. The facility never answers their phone, never returns phone calls, and is making it next to impossible to transfer her to a better facility.

Administration is terrible. They do not return calls or do what they say the will.

I wish giving them a Negative Star was possible! They make a lot of promise that are not carried out. It is very sad for the residents of this facility.

My mother was there five months and they sent her to the ER with sepsis, malnutrition, dehydration and in need of emergency surgery to remove all the dead tissue and part of the infected bone on her bottom from neglect. They made her so weak. My mother fought to recover but it became too much and she passed away last night. My mother was wheel chair bound when she was checked in to this nursing facility and in a short time she gained many more health issues. It is shocking and horrific that this level of neglect happened to her and lead to her death. Just horrible. The photos are before she went checked into the nursing home, and then the day she was sent to the emergency room from the nursing home and then last night on her death bed just before she passed.
