Those pictures are deceiving. I see they did not include pictures of where the patients spend most of their days sitting, eating and doing activities. I don't think it's fair to treat Dementia patients any type of way just because they don't understand their surroundings. But I would not dare sit in any of those chairs again. I made that mistake and drove all the way home disgusted. My but was wet and i dont know from what but i do know it was from a chair. From my understanding those rooms have not been renovated in at least 15 years. Why have fabric chairs when you know patients are capable of doing their business in them. WHy not have leather or pleather something that can be wiped down and sanitized. This place was good when my mom first got there but it's going ALL THE WAY DOWN. I pray daily that I can find a way to get my mom home without me having to stop working. But this is what happens when you don't have family support and you are left having to put your love one in facilities that the people who own them, don't care, but only about the money. I can go on and on with so many other topics about this place. It would take several more pages.send your love one someplace else.

No hot water again. Less than a year and this is the 3rd time. Patients cannot shower wash up. Medicare pays on time patients suffer. When an issue happens repeatedly it shows poor management. Maintaince contracts should be in place proactively prevention a situation like this. There are over 200+ residents affected. Oh and there was no communication on this issue either.
