Two star rating so it can’t be removed. Absolute worst facility coming from down to earth people that are hard to get upset. My grandmother received the worst care here. She arrived on a Saturday with a fractured hip and UTI. Saturday dinner/Sunday breakfast dishes were picked up when they brought Sunday LUNCH. Sunday they changed her soiled bedding but not her clothes. Three hours later (after several requests) they put the soiled clothes on the floor along with soiled towels. Pushing the call light is a signal for the nurses to flat ignore you. She finally got moved to decent facility Monday after she developed a RASH from her short stay here. Thankful to have had family with her (couldn’t imagine the care she’d receive had she been alone). I’m just baffled there wasn’t a singular nurse seeing a brand new, immobile, incontinent patient and didn’t have a thought in their brain about caring for them. Apparently it’s par for the course given similar reviews we wished we had seen before. Just bare minimum stuff guys. Ya’ll are playing with lives. I’ve seen a preschool class accomplish more with a chore chart than what was done over a weekend here.
