User Work
Management does not do enough, even when they have aides and nurses dedicated to their work and patient care it’s truly just not fair. David and Tracy can do much better and if they can’t, there needs to be new management. Good facility but can be way better.
Laurie Dietrich
88 degrees outside and the air isn’t working. This is ridiculous! All the money that they get for skilled nursing ($425 per day) and long-term care ($300 per day) and they can't afford to put in a new AC system? The staff is great here, but Corporate you need to step up to the plate before this place becomes just like Divine. Maybe you already are. They don't have air either. I bet all of the corporate heads live in nice houses and drive fancy cars, while your patients sit in hot rooms. The next couple of days it's supposed to be in the 90s and there's no air. You need to make some changes here so you're patients don't have to sit in this hot, stagnant building. Not to mention you can't even open the windows for fresh air or a breeze because they're broken. Like I said Ridiculous!!
