“Uncaring. Neglect of residences. Dirty. Understaffed. Will bring tears to your eyes. Who cares for are elderly? Its a disgrace. Sanford better take a deep look and do something. I can't believe in this country that we can't do better for our elderly population...this is a disgrace”

★Jerry Lass · 2021-02-15 · via Google

“Would not let our daughter say goodbye to her grandpa, and harassed me as I said my goodbyes for not wearing a mask. Even though I have a medical condition and the Ada does not permit them to do this. They are terrible people and have no compassion. Should rename bad samaritan society.”
