Horrible facility. If you want your loved one to die, place them here. Staff and nurses are not skilled and the executive director has a horrible bedside manner. We were forced to place one of my loved ones here and he was poorly treated and ultimately due to negligence suffered a fall which led to his death. This was reported to dcf and was covered up. Please do everything you can to advocate for your loved one. They make it difficult for family to do so. After his death, I was treated with impunity rather than compassion. This is one of the worst facilities in the area. Please beware.
