“Food tasted awful, always cold, small portions. I was given someone else’s meal 3 times. Severely understaffed. Call button takes sometimes an hour or more to answer. Bathroom is dirty. Toilet paper holder is hanging off the wall. The bathroom call button cord is not connected. On the plus side the therapists were fantastic.”

★Ted Ciambor · 2026-02-02 · via Google

“Terrible staffing problems leaves patients abandoned on evenings and weekends. Experienced hearing patients screaming for help for hours. Approaching staff results in the not my job response or ignoring requests for help.”
