My daughter was sent to Chelsea Place after surgery. The staff was inhumane and rude. Male staff came in and out of her room for no reason; one actually urinated in her bathroom with the door open in full view of my daughter. After 4 days, her surgery site became infected from lack of attention (she changed her own dressings due to neglect). My younger daughter said "I didn't know places like this existed in America."
