Social worker support stands out

Residents and families repeatedly describe the on-site social worker as highly helpful.

Multiple reviewers say the on-site social worker was informative, professional, and quick to address concerns. Several people specifically mention help with understanding the process and feeling supported during a loved oneā€™s stay. One reviewer also criticizes the facility and mentions the social worker in a dispute over discharge and communications, but even that account centers on the social workerā€™s role in the situation.

A few accounts even mention having to clean a room during a visit, reinforcing how uneven this experience can be.

Several reviewers highlight positive experiences with therapy, including physical therapy and recovery support.
