they brought my brother here for rehab, he’s total dependent. He has a bed with no side rails…he can’t walk. They ran out of chucks and wash cloths. it’s easy for him to fall out when we’re turning him. They’re short staffed and they’re not nice at all. I don’t even know how this place even got 3 1/2 stars. well today the nurse practitioner was talking crap at the front desk with the nurse because I was asking questions about my brother. No one says hello and no one says goodbye… this place needs to be shut down they don’t even do rehab like they say. The housekeeper says that she mopped the floor but the bathroom was nasty. The towels are dirty and dingy looking. I stayed in some of the worst hotels and even their towels are nice and clean and whiter than these are. nurses aide shout at patients and families and she is total inappropriate. i’m about to report her to the nursing aid board.

Well let's say so far custodians are horrible. I am not sure where everyone gets the review of the cleanliness. My love one first day there after being told the room would be cleaned to perfection was the untruth. White blinds are actually grayish black, privacy curtain dirty, borders of floor extremely dirty, air conditioner vent dusty. Administration staff have horrible customer service and don't properly know their job. After several weeks let's just say the room still dirty but they did get the dead roach off the floor finally. Update its amazing how far a review can go. I get a response after you all only took took the curtain down and forgot to replace it. Had to be told by supervisor to put it back up. Thanks to the maintenance personal who did come and assist today 2/25/26 he was so lost on what was going on. How about now check the blinds and the air conditioner now for the people that are still there.

It was a bit of a rough start when I first moved in here. Several hours would pass before I could get my diaper changed. When I shared this with my sister, they started being held accountable and it was taking less time before diaper changes were done. As I started going to therapy, they would always make sure that I was changed before going and when I got back from therapy. They encouraged me to start using the rest room on my own. Now I use the toilet and don't need a diaper change.

Very understaffed; there’s 130 patients here. Some staff are rude and sometimes ones at the desk don’t acknowledge that you are there but some are nice and do acknowledge you! The one staff guy would bring my relative their medication on time but the other staff make them wait longer. The place is clean tho. They have nice rooms, bathrooms, waiting area, and outdoor yard for the patients to get fresh air. They do activities like watch tv, give you books you want, coloring books, little bracelets to put together, they did taco night where you make food, there’s a calendar full of activities but because of Covid, some are limited. Grace the head staff is very attentive, clean, respectful and answers any questions we had. I understand they do the best they can too… I just wish there were more staff and some staff that sit at the desk when you walk in the door were more friendly and welcoming. It’s a good place altogether.
