A recurring complaint is that call buttons go unanswered or response times are too long, leaving residents waiting in uncomfortable conditions. Families also describe difficulty getting in touch with the nurses’ station and not hearing back after repeated attempts. Some reviews add that key information wasn’t communicated promptly during emergencies or changes in health status.
