Staffing stability can vary
Some residents report staffing turnover and gaps in caregiver experience.
A couple of reviews express frustration with staffing quality, including claims of poor staffing after an ownership change and a high turnover rate over time. Those reviews also describe challenges with caregivers not knowing the situation and needing additional training before care could run smoothly. In contrast, other reviews describe the opposite—consistent, attentive caregivers—so experiences appear mixed depending on the period and caregiver assigned.
