Staffing concerns affect attention
Some reviews say staffing shortages led to delayed or minimal care at times.
A recurring downside in a subset of reviews is that staffing can be too thin, especially on certain shifts, which reviewers tie to longer response times and missed details. Some families describe experiences where basic needs werenât handled promptly, including delays with changing and overall attention. Others express disappointment that concerns werenât addressed quickly after being raised, though they may still acknowledge strengths in rehab and general cleanliness.
