Care quality and safety concerns
A small number of reviews raise serious concerns about safety and care follow-through.
While most feedback is positive, a few reviews describe neglect-level experiences, including falls and problems with hygiene or room care that were not corrected promptly. One review also alleges issues during a medical isolation period and questions about infection controls. These concerns are significant enough that they stand apart from the broader pattern of praise in other reviews.
