Care attention can feel inconsistent
A few reviews raise concerns about adequate attention and how incidents are handled.
While most reviews are positive, a small number describe minimum attention unless a staff member is called, which reads as a breakdown in routine monitoring. Another review raises concerns about repeated injuries and the way events were investigated, plus notes staffing turnover. A separate review focuses on a negative experience during an inquiry, underscoring that communication can sometimes fall short.
