Resident & family reviews
This is one of the worst nursing care facilities that I had to visit. I do not believe that they take good care of their patients and the facility does not look like it is well kept.
This would not be a location that I would even take my dog if he needed care - and I don't even have a dog!!
PLEASE by all means, STAY AWAY!!
