Cons

Shame on this facility."
  • pro "Pray that you never have to stay in this place! The things I’ve endured are horrible. My room has roaches. Management seems unconcerned. I’ve had to wait up to 2 hours just to urinate. It’s dehumanizing! Nursing staff does not respond to call light."
  • pro "The food is horrible. I couldn’t eat or sleep."
  • pro "It was hard for her to share a tiny room, and she (not because of that) became more and more disabled and ill."
  • pro "I was disappointed with the lack of urgency from the staff that I encountered."
