Staffing and follow-through concerns
A few reviews raise concerns about nursing coverage and aftercare follow-through.
While many reviewers are satisfied, a couple of negative comments describe issues such as difficulty getting someone on the phone and concerns about nursing attentiveness. One review specifically criticizes care during the night and medication-related processes, which stands in sharp contrast to the broader positive experiences. Another review says there was no aftercare appointment arranged.
