    Review Summary

    The following is an AI generated summary of the reviews of the community from across the web.

    Reviews of the facility present a mixed picture, with some highlighting positive experiences and others expressing significant concerns. A number of reviews criticize the facility for delayed maintenance responses, with reports of it taking weeks for simple fixes like battery replacements and TV repairs. Concerns about cleanliness and neglect were also mentioned, including a disturbing account of a family member not receiving necessary care, leading to severe health deterioration.

    On the staffing front, there are complaints about the facility being critically understaffed, leading to inadequate patient care, including not answering call lights promptly and issues with medication management. One review mentioned a potential employee's negative experience during the hiring process, citing disorganization and a lack of welcoming attitude from the staff.

    However, there are also positive reviews that commend the facility for its cleanliness, professional and friendly staff, and excellent therapy services. Some family members noted significant improvements in their loved ones' conditions and praised the care provided. The leadership of the facility, particularly an administrator named Sally Boswell, was highlighted for her dedication to creating a supportive and nurturing environment for residents.

    Despite the positive aspects mentioned, several reviews strongly advise against placing loved ones in the facility, citing severe neglect, poor management, and lack of responsiveness to residents' needs. Issues with cleanliness, food quality, and overall care quality were significant concerns for many reviewers.

    In summary, while there are instances of positive feedback regarding staff professionalism and care quality, the facility faces serious criticisms related to neglect, staffing, maintenance delays, and management issues. Prospective residents and their families are advised to consider these reviews carefully.
