Some reviewers single out nurses for communication and follow-through on concerns, while others highlight directors or unit leaders as attentive to specific needs. Even amid criticisms, a few reviews note that certain nursing staff were kind and never the source of the problem.

Medication and treatment delays
Some reviewers describe medication and treatment delays that worried them about safety.
Several negative reviews focus on medication-related concerns, including delayed administration of IV antibiotics and worries about how that could affect recovery. Other comments describe failure to administer prescribed care such as pain meds or day-to-day medications, and concern that staffing and processes led to missed or incorrect treatment.
