Do not place your loved one at this facility!!! The Administration only cares about the bottom line. They will Keep you to get more insurance money. The staff is poorly Trained, because they do not want to spend money on training Them. Ants are crawling on patients and on their food trays As well. Also the patients do not get enough food to eat.
