I was transfer from hospital here very sick. Didn't last just over night and morning called ASAP my sister to get me out. The worst filthy neglectful place ever. I was telling nurse please my heart medicine and she would look and ignore. Told me , if I was cool over night , I'd get some good stuff. What the heck was that comment! No toilet paper. I was given a sandwich like a doggie bag. Nothing to drink but begging got some water. Bathroom shared had pee on floor and a filthy bucket in sink. I was out morning and the whole staff was just laughing at me as I was wheeled away to get me home. Place looks like an asylum. Please don't take a loved one there. 💔
