Overall Review of Good Samaritan II

caveat 2 reviews mention this

Dementia care has serious complaints

Some residentsā€™ families report problems with memory care communication and training.

A couple of reviews describe breakdowns in memory-care support, including billing issues, limited communication, and concerns about caregiver training. Other reviewers also raise concerns about mistreatment in reminiscence settings, saying their family member was not adequately protected. These accounts stand out because they contrast sharply with the many positive notes about care elsewhere in the reviews.
