Awful! Do not send your loved one here! Inadequate care! Long waits for assistance, poor cleanliness! Very sad. Wish I could put less than 1 star. Stay far away from this place.

Green reidge care center (owner) can you leave your personal number, the 888 # you left i called and was connected to a care center. (Wasn't your number)<br>Can you leave or message a direct number to contact you.<br><br>Bad place to bring senior family member in need of help with therapeutic. I was on a video call with my grandfather and watched a nurse give my grandfather something, and not even 5 minutes later, my grandfather passed away. The worst part was we couldn't get an autopsy done because greenridge called every coroner to prevent my family from having an autopsy and gave us 48 hours to get grandfather. Staff are not friendly and be more on their phone when I go visit my gtandfather. If you care for your relative, you might want to reconsider this place. Thos place is a low-key legal senior executioner. Grandfather health declined while here and had a few death scares. Horrible place for senior.. Staff from the hospital stated this place is the worst, they worked there and had to leave becausr how they clients are treated. It's just not right.
