    Beloved home ruined by manager

    I used to think this cozy place was a wonderful home - great communication, supportive services, and caring staff. Since the new manager arrived she's been rude and short with residents and families, several good staff have left, and the owner seems unaware or unconcerned; residents and I feel miserable and I believe she should be removed. It's heartbreaking that what was once my favorite affiliation is now the worst place I've seen.
