    Review

    A facility that has been receiving negative attention recently due to its poor conditions and lack of care is described as absolutely gross. The complaints range from flies, maggots, and mold everywhere to dirty clothes scattered all over the place. These issues have even been featured on television as health hazards. It seems that this establishment offers no assistance with medications, laundry, or food, leaving residents to fend for themselves. With only one bathroom available for up to six people, it is clear that basic necessities are lacking.

    One particularly alarming incident involved a pit bull attacking another dog while being unleashed in the presence of a dog on a leash. This demonstrates a neglected safety concern in the environment. Additionally, the reviewer mentions other shortcomings such as empty refrigerators, only one meal served per day (if there is even a cook present), and residents eating off paper plates on their beds due to the lack of dining space. The entry ramp also poses a danger as it is unstable and rotting.

    Overall, these reviews paint a picture of an unclean and unpleasant environment that should be shut down. The facility appears unkempt with a strong unpleasant odor. The owner's lack of care and disregard for residents' well-being are evident throughout the reviews.

    However, not all reviews are completely negative. One review mentions a tour given by Cynthia, who was described as nice but highlighted concerns about the amount of individual attention given to residents. Another review acknowledges the accommodations provided by the facility but suggests improvements in cleanliness and training specific to Alzheimer's and dementia patients.

    Despite these few positive comments, most reviewers express disgust at the condition of this particular facility. Numerous complaints focus on untidiness, unprepared staff members, and an overall lack of care shown towards residents.

    In conclusion, this establishment has received overwhelmingly negative feedback due to its despicable cleanliness standards and overall disregard for residents' well-being. The numerous grievances mentioned include unsanitary conditions such as flies, maggots, and mold, as well as the lack of assistance with basic necessities like medication, laundry, and food. The presence of a dangerous dog adds to the already hazardous environment. Although there were a couple of positive comments regarding the friendliness of staff members and accommodations provided, they do not overshadow the overwhelming consensus that this facility falls far short in meeting basic care standards. It is clear that significant improvements are needed in order for it to be considered an appropriate place for individuals to receive care.
