Resident & family reviews
I have been an RN for 30 years. While spending time visiting a patient at this facility, I was extremely unhappy with the care my loved one was receiving. He was able to LOCK himself in his bathroom, while unstable and confused; and the nursing staff did not have a key. On two occasions during a 3 hour visit, the nursing assistant had to find someone who was able to pick the lock. The staff confessed to their inability to provide good care because they were so short staffed. Some of the staff were kind and tried to the best of their ability, to care for the patients, but they were stretched too thin. This memory unit was NOT LOCKED and my loved one's room was NEXT TO the unlocked stairwell. The elevator was also unsecured. I believe this is an unsafe situation.
