Great people, great place, we were blessed to have them care for my aunt!!!
For two days my dying grandmother was refused pain medicine when needed by the male RN. He was Extremely rough during diaper changes and made my grandma yelp aloud in pain. At the very end, when the rude RN had enough of our family being there, he over dosed my grandmother in order for her to die faster. This place should be sued.
This was the hardest fees days of my LIFE! The people here are Special, from the Nursing Staff to the Housekeeping. Not only did they work to Care for my Mom...they cared for Us. No choice is easy when you get to this point... Coming here will be a Easy one for your heart. God Bless these people for truly doing God's work.
