Review Summary
The following is an AI generated summary of the reviews of the community from across the web.
Reviews for the senior living facility present a mixed picture, with some highlighting positive experiences and others expressing significant concerns.
- Several reviewers commend the facility for its cleanliness, the quality of its therapy department, and the caring nature of its staff. Physical therapy, in particular, received high praise for motivating and effective sessions.
- Positive experiences also include the respectful and caring interactions observed between staff and residents, with families noting the facility's responsiveness and the compassionate care provided to their loved ones.
- However, numerous reviews raise serious concerns about staffing levels, with reports of the facility being very understaffed, leading to inadequate care. Complaints include a lack of assistance with basic needs such as going to the bathroom, medication management issues, and insufficient training and orientation for new staff.
- Some families reported neglect and mistreatment, including a case where allegations of neglect were confirmed by the Department of Inspections and Appeals (DIA), and an incident where a nurse was arrested for assaulting a resident.
- There are also accounts of personal belongings being lost or damaged, and a general lack of empathy and passion from some staff members, negatively impacting the residents' quality of life.
- Despite these challenges, some reviews express hope for improvement, attributing current issues to the broader challenges faced by healthcare facilities during the pandemic and anticipating a return to higher standards of care in the future.
In summary, while there are instances of excellent care and dedicated staff, the facility appears to struggle with significant staffing and management issues that have impacted the quality of care and overall resident experience.
