So far my husband is being well taken care of. If he need help eating, they make sure he shaved, therapy they keep them busy even if they just sit around the nursing station they don't just keep them in bed they get them up, dressed and moving occupied

They take good care of my mom. The facility is clean and cheerful; the employees have good attitudes.

I visited with family yesterday up on unit A. I don’t know what’s going on with Nurses today. This nurse had her headphones in the entire time of my visit yapping away using all kinds of profane language. Real sad thing to see. I believe most of em just don’t really care because they’re agency.

While it has been some time since my father was placed in the home, my opinion remains the same.<br>Unfortunately, he was sent here during Covid, so myself and my mother were unable to check up on him as often as we would have liked. But during our few visits, we were less than impressed. Many of the patients appeared to be neglected. My father was one of 9 patients within the week who died from Covid. They had to get the National Guard involved because of it all. There was urine all throughout the facility. Patients who needed one-on-one help went without. Nurses were rude. My dad went without his glasses, which caused additional problems with his psychosis. I could tell he was often in pain, but he was ignored.<br>I would NEVER recommend sending a loved one here. I have to spend the rest of my life knowing that my father and his needs were neglected during a time when he needed someone the most.
