Waiting for help

“To many robots on their teleppeesob to talk with persohone lines, noo live”

“A lot of citations. Let me tell you these citations are very difficult to get and thoroughly investigated by the state. You may consider another option. Just because a place looks pretty doesn’t mean that they are responsible, responsive, or caring enough. Unfortunately, it is the case with many facilities. You need to do your research via the state site!”

“Food is good. Lots of available activities. Sometimes there is a delay when you call for assistance. The are some very good care givers who demonstrate their passion for their work and some seem to be just doing their job for the money. L. The facility is very well kept up.The cost for care, over and above the rent is very costly!”

“why won't anyone answer the phone here???? its 615 and they're open 24/7. al i get is staff too busy to answer. thats unacceptable in my opinion. you should be able to speak with someone if there's a facility involved.”
