  • Relationship to this provider?
    I visited this facility
  • Q. Your overall impressions of this provider?
    A. Many of these individuals are helpless, vulnerable and completely dependent upon nursing home staff to meet most or all of their needs. After all, nursing homes are supposed to be in the business of providing skilled nursing care to elderly and disabled residents. They leave them for hours without anyone to check on them. Under staff and don't speak ENGLISH.
  • Q. Would you recommend this care provider?
    A. No
