I've been in here since June 17th. And some of the workers are so beautiful and amazing.but there are also some that don't care about the patient and people that have to be there. The cooks that cooking all the meals Brk,lunch, dinner! Just putting things together and giving it to all the patient and people in here on both floors. And that's not right. But they go out and get them good food.🤨🤔

Went to visit my uncle who is in the dump of a building for hospice. He is a Vietnam vet and VA actually thinks this place is ok for our heros. First off just pulling up you see how much of a dump it is. When you open the door the stench is overwhelming. It smells of piss and mold. Going up in the elevator you can smell it getting worse. Filth everywhere. My Uncles room is disgusting. The light was broken and instead of changing the florescent bulb it was taken out and leaning on the wall. Dangerous if it fell on the floor, they explode. There was puke on the wall by his head that wasn't from him. Curtains were ripped about 30 years old and hanging off the rod. The windows were so filthy you can't see through them. The window isn't even sealed to the wall. I had to ask for cleaning supplies to clean his room. Walking down the hall to find a worker you could smell the string stench of someone smoking in their room. Seriously the place is going to burn down and kill every resident. The staff acted like they were deaf. PLEASE DO NOT PLACE A LOVED ONE HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The outside looks like trash, screens busted. Inside is dirty, nuses are were stripper clothes. Equipment is dirty scratched up etc. Residents are dirty. No linen etc Shame on the state letting places like this stay open. People that own it should not sleep at night. I hope there loved ones will be at a place like this...
