“My mom has been there for the last 5 1/2 years, and my mom has been transferred to a new facility without my permission/ consent. They didn’t notify me of where she was going I had to hear from another person. This place isn’t good for anyone to be at, and if you have your loved one there please get them out because they aren’t taking care of them properly.”

“My dad has been at this facility for several weeks now - he's had a long history of dementia/not taking care of himself, and in just a few weeks, he's already looking better and learning new skills.

But you will never find a more attentive staff ANYWHERE. That, to me,…”
