    The reviews for this facility are overwhelmingly negative, with many citing severe neglect, unprofessional behavior, and inadequate care. Several reviewers expressed regret at having to give even one star, wishing for a lower rating option. Common complaints include:

    • Staff neglect leading to patients being left unattended for hours, not receiving basic care like hygiene assistance or meals.
    • Rude and unhelpful staff, with a few exceptions who were noted for their kindness and professionalism.
    • Severe administrative issues, including a highly criticized Director of Nursing accused of lacking qualifications and failing to provide adequate oversight.
