My Mother stayed there briefly one week for PT as she could no longer walk. She was set for 5 days a week PT and 3 days a week OT. After the first week I was not happy with how she was looking and spoke to the case manager. I found there was no progress in the first week ( not their fault) so I said I would like mom home then I don’t want to put her through any more. That’s when it changed to all about the money she shamed me why wouldn’t you want your mother to have another week of care. Let me tell you she came home with a uti Bruises all over and after just one week, she had bad sores on her rear both of her heels it was devastating. It is a business for them please fight for you family

I would never recommend this place. I went to visit my father after he had been here for about 24 hours and was very disappointed. He went in for a hip injury and was supposed to be doing physical therapy here for the next 2 to 3 weeks. When I got to my dad to check on him he was in a lot of pain. I asked him if they gave him any medication and he said no. (Came from the hospital and they were giving him around the clock pain medication) I asked the nurse what was going on and they acted like they didn’t really know what was going on. After figuring out they said pain medication and his anxiety meds were only as needed. But never checked to see if they were needed or let him know that he was supposed to ask. next I asked where his remote to his tv was because he had just been sitting there staring at the wall they had never gave him a remote for the tv. I left there feeling uneasy and I wish I would have trusted my gut and took him out of there because the next day I had talked to my dad in the morning and they had still not done any physical therapy with my father by day 3. They kept telling him he was going to do physical therapy every day and never did. Well this day my dad passed away at the care home due to what the drs at the hospital were saying a blood clot.(maybe because he hadn’t been moved in 3 days to do his physical therapy.) Did I get a call to let me know that his heart stopped there or he was in route to the hospital? NO! I didn’t no one called me to tell me anything I had to call up there hours later and asked them what happened. This place is terrible and understaffed I do not recommend anyone going here.

About this data
How to read this page
Star ratings vs. Care Quality Score: The Google star rating reflects visitor and family opinions collected from public reviews. The Care Quality Score is an independent metric derived entirely from federal inspection data — the two measure different things, and comparing them side-by-side gives a fuller picture.
Where this data comes from
All clinical data on this page originates from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), the federal agency that certifies and inspects every Medicare- and Medicaid-participating nursing home in the United States. Reviews are imported verbatim from public Google business listings.
What to do next
Data is a starting point, not a final answer. We encourage families to visit facilities in person, observe daily routines, and speak with staff and residents. See our guide: Questions to Ask When Visiting →
