“This place has many residents living here. I'm sure the nursing staff do their best to care for the patients. The only thing I noticed that really needs addressing is maintenance. Such as the vents need cleaning and the walls could use some spackle and paint. A lot of the issues can be resolved with a direct approach to maintaining the place. Needs addressing”

“This place is horrible! Soon as you walk on the floor you smell feces. The staff is half and half. Some nasty, some nice. You call the main number it takes 2-4 calls to finally get an answer. Then whoever answers says hello instead of thank you for calling Elkins how may I help you. One person answered and said what do you want? When you want to get inside the building the sign says call or knock …”

★lisa Brown · 2026-03-09 · via Google

“Nurses dont check on their patients often enough. My aunt has a roommate who crapped all over the place it was gross. I had to get the nurse for her. Stunk so bad in there. Also the whole place smelled bad. Just not happy with my visit. Will never go there again. Hopefully my aunt will get out of there real quick.”
