Transportation issues disrupt care plans
A recurring concern is transportation errors that delay appointments.
Two reviews describe transportation problems that led to missed or delayed doctor-related needs. In one case, a family member says a scheduled appointment was missed due to transport issues, including picking up the wrong patient. Another review recounts a transport mix-up that kept a loved one waiting far longer than expected.

Understaffing limits time with residents
Some reviews say staffing levels can be too tight.
Two reviews mention staffing being overworked or understaffed, which they connect to limited time for individual attention. One reviewer describes staff as busy enough that they cannot spend much time with each patient. Another notes the facility being under staffed and points to practical impacts during the stay.
