    Unsafe, unclean, neglectful, poor communication

    I had an extremely negative experience. My husband fell twice and came back with bruises; calls went unanswered and communication was poor. The building was old, rundown, smelled horrible, and felt unsafe - staff were demeaning and I saw no one who seemed to care. I would never put my husband there and strongly discourage anyone from going.

    Summary review

    Overall sentiment across the provided reviews is strongly negative. The dominant themes are unacceptable facility conditions, poor and sometimes dehumanizing staff behavior, safety incidents involving residents, and a lack of communication or accountability from the facility. While one or more reviews acknowledge that some employees "care," that appears to be an exception within an otherwise consistently critical set of accounts.

    Facility condition and cleanliness are repeatedly criticized. Reviewers describe the building as "old and rundown," "not clean," and having a "horrible" smell. These comments suggest systemic problems with housekeeping, laundry, odor control, or building maintenance rather than isolated occurrences. Poor physical conditions can contribute directly to resident comfort, infection risk, and family trust in the home, and the strong language used indicates these issues are prominent in reviewers' impressions.

    Care quality and staff behavior are central concerns. Multiple summaries mention poor staff behavior and dehumanizing treatment of residents, with reviewers calling their experiences "extremely negative" and labeling the home among the "worst." Although there is a note that some employees care, the predominant message is that staff interactions are inadequate, disrespectful, or neglectful. This pattern has affected families' willingness to place loved ones in the facility and has led some reviewers to explicitly state they would not recommend the home or would not put a spouse there.

    Safety and communication problems are explicit and alarming. Reviews reference two resident falls, unexplained bruises, and an absence of satisfactory answers from staff or management. Those issues point to failures in monitoring, incident investigation, and transparent communication with families. The combination of actual incidents (falls, bruising) and the reported lack of answers heightens concerns that the facility is not prioritizing resident safety or is unable to provide clear explanations when adverse events occur.

    Notably, reviewers strongly discourage visiting or placement. Phrases like "not recommended," "would not put husband there," and "strongly discouraged from visiting" indicate that many family members view the facility as unsuitable for even temporary stays. The reviews reflect a loss of trust that is broad rather than isolated to a single interaction or staff member.

    Other operational areas such as dining, activities, clinical staffing levels, and management practices are not detailed in these summaries. Their absence means we cannot draw direct conclusions about those domains beyond the inference that serious issues with cleanliness, staff conduct, safety, and communication are the dominant problems highlighted by reviewers.

    In sum, the reviews present a consistent picture of a nursing home with significant deficiencies in the physical environment and hygiene, staff behavior and resident treatment, safety oversight, and family communication. While a minority of staff are perceived as caring, that does not offset the broader pattern of negative experiences. The predominant recommendation from reviewers is to avoid placement or visiting until measurable improvements in cleanliness, resident safety, staff training/behavior, and transparency are demonstrated.
