Would give this place zero stars if I could. This place isn’t friendly to the residents let alone they turn the call lights off and say they will be back and never come back. My family member laid there for hours waiting to be helped. The place isn’t cleaned well either. Had roommate leave and days later it was cleaned. The food is awful and you are lucky to get it if they remember you are there to bring it otherwise prepackaged nasty food is what you will be served.

I live out of state and have been trying to get a hold of my dad for three days. It is ridiculous that these people don’t get their phones fixed!
