Diabetes care gets mixed reviews

Diabetes-related care is a recurring concern, including insulin timing and medication accuracy.

Others report medication mix-ups, including being given diabetes-related medication despite not being diabetic. A few also say they received limited benefit from the planned diet options for diabetes.

Food quality and diet fit vary

Food can fall short, especially for residents following diabetes- or low-sodium-style diets.

Several residents and families mention that the meals are adequate but not great, while others call the food terrible. A couple of reviews specifically question whether dietary restrictions are followed well enough for conditions like diabetes, including concerns that diabetes meals weren’t a good fit.
