Mixed experiences with higher care
Some reviews raise concerns about staffing levels and care quality under full-need situations.
While many reviews praise staff and day-to-day help, a smaller set of reviews describe problems during rehab or assisted-living periods, including concerns about staffing thinness and the ability to meet patients’ needs. A few reviewers also mention dissatisfaction with food quality during those higher-need stays. The contrasting reviews suggest the experience can depend on the level of care being provided and the timing of the stay.
