“If you love someone in this facility I would strongly encourage you to find a better place for them. They were mean, rude, uncaring, neglectful bullies. My person almost died there due to their mistreatment/neglect. Please advocate for your people and take them somewhere they will be treated with love or the bare minimum compassion and professionalism.”
