I always read reviews before touring a potential long-term home for my mother. I’m deeply disturbed by the most recent review describing staff openly stating they do not support the LGBTQIA+ community.<br>My mother, who lives with PTSD, BPD, COPD, and CHF, is also a proud lesbian and open about who she is. Seeing comments like this immediately raises serious concerns about whether residents would receive unbiased, respectful, and safe care.<br>Everyone is entitled to personal beliefs, but publicly expressing views that disparage a protected community, especially while holding a leadership role in healthcare, is completely inappropriate. As a Director of Health/Director of Nursing, professionalism and nondiscrimination are not optional.<br>I am an RN with 12 years of experience, and I would never publicly share personal beliefs in a way that could make families question whether their loved one would be treated differently. This behavior is unprofessional and undermines trust in the care being provided.<br>Because of this, my mother will not be considered for residency at this facility. I hope other families read reviews carefully, because you truly never know who is responsible for your loved one’s care behind the scenes. Facilities can look very different during a tour than they do in practice.<br>This situation raises concerns that I sincerely hope have been reported to the appropriate licensing and oversight agencies.<br><br>03/06/2026 15:02 reply to response is as follows. Thank you for the response. While you describe this as a “personal matter,” the concern raised is about an individual in a healthcare leadership role publicly expressing views that raise questions about their ability to provide unbiased care to all residents. That is not something families should have to overlook when considering a facility for their loved ones.<br>Out of concern for resident welfare and professional standards, I have already forwarded the matter to the appropriate oversight and licensing authorities for review. Because of the nature of the concern, I do not feel comfortable addressing this privately with facility leadership.<br>Families rely on transparency when making decisions about long-term care, and issues that could impact trust in resident care deserve appropriate attention.
