Resident & family reviews
This place is the worst place ever. The nurses are nowhere to be found and they do not give any care to their patients. When you call for a nurse no one comes to help you. Then the nurses yell at you. The staff is very rude to you and your family members. The whole place is very noise and the patients are unable to get any peace and quiet. This is no place for someone who is terminally ill. Also, no one ever answers the phone in that place. There are no phones in the rooms and there is no way to communicate with the patients. This place needs a whole new staff and a lot of upgrades. I would not recommend this place to anyone. Do not send your love ones to the dump.
