Resident & family reviews
Please don't allow your loved ones to enter this place. The patients (your loved ones) are treated like neglected dogs. They are non-humans to the administrator- Lori and all the nurses. If you love your family at all please avoid this center. They are known to kill "residents" to cut costs and save face. I plead with you, don't send them to this hell....
