Some staff coverage feels inconsistent

A few reviewers say staffing levels can be uneven and lead to slower care moments.

While most feedback is highly positive, a small number of reviews mention that not every staff member engages the same way and that there can be moments when residents feel idle. One reviewer specifically raises concerns about having enough staff for the number of residents, especially early on. Another reviewer notes limited seating outdoors for longer stretches, which affects comfort during common-time routines.

    Dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, is often mischaracterized in terms of lethality as it leads to complications that can be fatal rather than being a direct cause of death; it causes a progressive decline in cognitive and physical health, making patients vulnerable to infections and other health crises. Effective management of nutrition, hydration, and communication is crucial in patient care, with palliative care becoming vital in advanced stages to enhance comfort and quality of life while caregivers play a key role amidst the challenges posed by the disease.
