Just found out this horrible place is closed down. Merged with the Guest House now. I Pray and Hope the former administrators and some staff aren't reeking havoc on any of the patients with this merge. PLEASE CHECK ON YOUR RELATIVES!!!!!

Absolutely atrocious care of my family member which was here about 8 months ago. Staff ignores their patients and acts as though it's too much of a hassle to care for them medically. They should remove the word care from their name. 1 star is being generous. If I could give them less I would. If you love your family don't go here. Save yourself and your family the pain of dealing with these awful people. Chosen for physical therapy and care they barely even spent 10 min with the patient.
