Resident & family reviews
My great grandmother is 93 years old. She spent several month in this facility and was treated very poorly. I was extremely shocked to see these nurses treat the patients so rudely and show no compassion at all. These nurses do not seem to care one bit about there patients. They give these poor elderly people pain medication around the clock! My great grandmother was so incoherent at one that she did not know anyone around her. I recommend these nurses be given a class in compassion and elderly care. they have no sympathy at all for these patients.
