My mother was in there for awhile. Never saw a doctor. Physical therapy was supposed to come twice a week sometimes didn't even come at all. That is what she was there for. They take so long to respond when you need help. Then some of her stuff started disappearing don't know what happened to it. I asked they claimed they didn't know what happened or where it was. I really don't believe that. Don't put any family member there. I don't think they really care about residents just themselves. Go anywhere but there. She is doing much better at home then she did there. STAY AWAY
