Communication and staffing concerns

A recurring concern is delayed help and poor follow-through when families try to reach staff or get timely care.

Some reviews describe situations where help was not provided after repeated requests, including pressing a call button for an extended period without a response. Others report difficulty contacting staff, such as no one returning phone calls and unanswered desk requests. A separate set of comments raise broader safety and care-management concerns, including slow urgency, lack of clear emergency readiness, and incidents where care priorities were not addressed as requested.
