If your loved one is admitted and does not have access to a cell phone, you will be given the run around and never able to speak with them. My father in law was denied the right to speak to his wife of 66 years after several attempts. Staff always told us they would have her call on the resident phone but never called back. The mental stress they caused our family is beyond words. No compassion just about revenue.

My mom has been a resident there for a few years. I stopped to see her the other day and she has feces smeared on her pillowcase.

I was really surprised at this facility. It was quite dirty. The floor needed washing. It was so dusty that I left footprints. The bathroom was a toilet shared with another room and the floor showed that it had had liquids spilled on it and allowed to dry. When I complained, nursing sent a cleaning woman in to clean the floors but she was very sulky and gave me a dirty look.
