    Neglect caused death; mixed experiences

    I had a mixed but ultimately distressing experience. Severe staff neglect left a resident unattended for three days, resulting in dehydration, an ambulance transfer and a death - I cannot recommend this place; it needs investigation. Communication is awful (no in-room phones, locked doors, staff hard to reach, runaround) and the building feels neglected (peeling paint, slight odor, small rooms). That said, great CNAs, nurses and social workers, engaging activities, a garden and single rooms were positives and made me grateful at times.
