Mixed notes on nursing response
One review raises serious concerns about hygiene and delegation practices.
While most reviews are positive, two do highlight care concerns that stand out. One reviewer describes hygiene issues in and around dining and questions how certain care responsibilities are handled. Another mentions a narrower problem where a nurse did not always respond directly to questions. These are the main outlier concerns in the set of reviews.
