Call button response is a problem

Some residents describe delayed call-button help.

A recurring concern is that residents do not always receive timely assistance when they press their call button.

Even though some employees are praised as caring, these response-time issues come up often enough to stand out.

These reviewers describe situations where the dining team was short-staffed, meals arrived cold, or items were brought late enough that residents waited or finished eating without hot service. Residents also mention that dining includes restaurant-style meal service and room service options, but the service timing is the part that feels inconsistent.
