The food sucks the level of care is questionable and the social worker Ashley never returns calls and is always in a meeting. Very unprofessional to leave family members hanging. They do a lot of talking but no action do they do on that talking. The food sucks n the elevator never works that an accident waiting to happen. Think twice before putting a love one in this place

LATEST: THE facility tried to replace a disintegrated mattress with one soaked in urine and feces!!! After complaints, they exchanged for 2 more used and stained mattresses, even though the Director of Nursing promised a new mattress. When the Administrator was contacted, we were told they have no new mattresses but we could buy one on our own for the resident. When we said we would complain to the state, she replied, "That's your right!" So we did. Filthy facility. So hot inside during the winter that the residents have to run their window A/C's to mitigate the extreme heat from a system the staff says they cannot regulate. Virtually every meal is chicken and pasta. The elevators have bulbs which are out and damaged floors which need replaced. Except by the main entrance, the walls havent seen paint in years. Seems like the owners just collect their Medicaid $$$ without investing in the upkeep of the physical plant. The residents refer to their rooms as "cells". I would hate to have one if my loved ones "incarcerated" in a facility like this!!! Caught staff parking in disability spots in the back without the proper placards
