This facility is poorly run, poorly staffed and neglects the residents who are designated in the rehab section of the facility. I would never endorse this facility for any person. Your loved one will be hurt and his/her needs will not be satisfactorily met.

He did not complain to much about the food. The people that helped me when I could find someone were friendly, however the care was average
Except for skilled nursing.
