Staffing and response times are concerns

Some families report staffing shortages that affect call light response and basic care follow-through.

A recurring negative point in several reviews is not just the presence of staff, but the ability to respond quickly—especially for call lights and routine care needs. Some families also mention safety or follow-through concerns, such as issues with medication, showers, or maintenance requests. Even within these criticisms, a few reviews still acknowledge that certain nurses or aides do a good job when they are available.
