Relationship to this provider?
My loved one stayed here
Q. Your overall impressions of this provider?
A. I was very disappointed in the level of care provided by the Nursing staff and Physicians. Patients are not monitored as well as they should be and this facility has Very Poor communication with immediate family with regards to the patients prognosis. The admitting staff need to show more care and not just have a "Cost Mind" attitude. I would not recommend this facility to anyone.
Q. Would you recommend this care provider?
A. No
