Compassionate staff but inconsistent care
I experienced both highs and lows: the therapy team and many kind, compassionate staff were outstanding - admissions, activities and hospice were helpful and my loved one made real progress - but care was inconsistent. Nurses were often unresponsive, communication poor, and short-staffing led to cleanliness, hygiene and food problems (bad smells, wet bedding, skipped dental care) and occasional disrespect, so be cautious.
