The patients are paying for care that they aren’t receiving! i had an awful experience interacting with staff, it seems that they simply don’t care. The front desk receptionist was in the back chatting for 10 minutes before I found someone to go get her to help. They didn’t even have nursing staff when I visited. The only positive reviews I can find are from employees, low quality of care seems to be the consensus from patients/family.

The administrator has a lot to learn. She has no communication skills, never returns calls or addresses concerns from the family. 3/4 of the time the staff doesn’t answer the phone and I have had to drive an hour to check on my mother on more than one occasion. So relieved my mother no longer resides there. Serious changes need to be made, starting with the current administrator. Naomi is amazing and gets things done. I was so very thankful for her, Sue and Denise. Also, more than once my mother was refused bread because of “short supply.” Absolutely ridiculous

I can not complain because I'm afraid my family living there will suffer for it.
