Care can be inconsistent

A few reviews also describe patient comfort and safety concerns, including claims that needs were not addressed promptly or were handled poorly when reported.

Meals divide opinions

Meal quality and portioning get mixed feedback.

Some reviewers say the food is good, and at least one person mentions being satisfied with meals provided during a visit or stay.
