Terrible service. The head nurse is Zoe was very nice and professional, but besides her, my mom had the worst experience ever. They would leave her on the toilet for 45 minutes to an hour and a half at times after she did number 2 and left her dirty each time for those durations . Each CNA made it a point to have it known that it was a bother to take care of my mother and the other patients. Also, my mother developed a vaginal rash Because the nurses would wipe her from back to front, and my mom developed many complications because of that. This place is terrible. It’s a shame that the good people that work here has to be brought down by those terrible coworkers that they have. I do not recommend anybody coming here for any reason whatsoever. If they treat my mom like this, who is cognitive, how do you think they will treat your loved ones that may not be able to defend themselves or speak up for themselves or have mental disabilities such as dementia?
