    Review

    There is a striking clash of experiences reported about this facility, with some voices sounding alarms about medication management, patient safety, and the basic humanity of care, while others describe moments of unusually positive service, cleanliness, and comfort. One writer recalls a friend who was in the building and faced what they see as improper handling of medications: "didn't give her meds right, decided she didn't need what she was taking," followed by a behavioral escalation that landed her in the Booneville behavioral unit. The author questions whether the medications, in some way, contributed to problems, only to be told otherwise by the staff. Even more troubling, they say medication continued to be given, sedation persisted, and a family claim that the patient should be kept in bed was contested as untrue. The takeaway is a plea to look beyond a paycheck and to remember that every resident could someday be a family member - these reflections plead for a standard of care that honors dignity and safety.

    Another account centers on a cousin who had only been there since Friday evening. The visitor found him sleeping, with a urinal left on a dresser just out of reach. While they went to fetch ice, the desk nurse was reportedly asleep, and over the course of two hours no one checked on him. The visitor says they left their daughter there with the impression that the setting was not up to standard. Taken together, these details paint a picture of neglect in the daily routines that are supposed to sustain a patient: basic tasks left undone, checks that never came, and opportunities for comfort missed in the quiet hours.

    A chorus of voices reinforces the negative view, with phrases like "treat the patients without care" and "neglects patients" repeated as blunt judgments. A reviewer goes further, saying they would award negative stars if that were possible, and insists that no one should put a loved one there because the care can leave patients in worse shape than when they arrived. The emotional weight of the message is clear: the facility, in this account, does not just fail to meet expectations; it actively harms, or at least fails to protect, those in its care. In a particularly stark claim, a family states that their mother came out in a worse condition than when she went in, underscoring the fear that neglect and poor care translate into real, lasting harm.

    Perhaps the most alarming line is reserved for a grandmother whose family says she was rushed to the ER due to negligence and nearly died; emergency surgery on her head followed, a consequence the writer links directly to the facility's lack of proper care and attentiveness. This account casts a long shadow over the institution, with a clear warning to others: do not rely on this facility if safety is a priority. The reviewer is unequivocal in their condemnation, insisting that the center should not be recommended to anyone unless they are seeking tragedy or harm.

    There are odd interludes that soften the overall tone, too. One visitor describes a scenario of someone taking a wrong turn at night, knocking on the front door for directions, and being pointed in the right direction. The author admits they have never been inside the building but leaves a faint note of curiosity about possibly interning there someday. It's a brief, almost whimsical aside that sits alongside more urgent complaints, hinting that perceptions of a facility can depend heavily on which moment you happen to observe.

    Amid the stark warnings, a contrasting thread runs through some other accounts: praise for aspects of the facility's daily life. A few reviewers simply insist, "I love it," claiming the hospital-like setting offers some of the best food they've had, calling it the "best ?hospital' food I've ever had," and noting a 24-hour concierge service. They describe clean rooms and regular cleaning, and they emphasize comfortable surroundings, decent food, and friendly staff. In their view, the place functions well as a living environment, not just a care setting, with pleasant meals and attentive service when things go smoothly.

    Even more affirming, another reviewer describes the place as "a good, comfortable" home with "good feeding," a "good staff," and a "good place to live." Phrases like "I just love it" populate these accounts, painting a picture of satisfaction built on reliable routines, cleanliness, responsive care, and a sense of security. Taken together, these remarks offer a counterpoint to the harsher critiques, suggesting that for some residents and visitors, the experience can be positive, with dependable routines, pleasant amenities, and courteous personnel.

    The overall tapestry of these remarks points to a deeply mixed picture. There are voices that warn others to proceed with caution, to probe the quality of care, to verify medication practices, and to consider whether the environment truly protects the dignity and safety of its most vulnerable residents. At the same time, there are affirmations of comfort, cleanliness, and good service that remind readers that care facilities can - and do - provide supportive, well-run environments for some people. The contrast invites careful, individualized evaluation: families choosing care for a loved one should seek firsthand observations, ask pointed questions about medication management and staff training, and assess whether the day-to-day operations align with what they would want for themselves or for someone they love.
