Relationship to this provider?
My loved one used this service
Q. Your overall impressions of this provider?
A. Absolutely horrible place. Wound care was lacking to the point that my mother almost died. While staying there her healing infection worsened to the point where she was septic and the infection was in the bone.

When we asked the doctor about her worsening condition he casually stated that she would probably die within a week.

If you care for your loved one at all do not send him/her there!!
Q. Would you recommend this care provider?
A. No
