“I have been at Carecore at mentor nursing home for 7 months and I'm very pleased with the staff and the care I'm been given. The place is kept very clean. The meals are fair and they have alternatives if I don't like what they have. If i have issues they take care of it right away. This is one of the best nursing homes I have seen.”
