Skilled staff but unsafe facility
I had a mixed experience. The CNAs, nurses and therapy team were fantastic - they helped me recover, the room was spacious and I was allowed my big-screen TV - but chronic understaffing and slow call-light responses left me feeling neglected. I witnessed theft of belongings, staff complaining in front of patients, and serious cleanliness/upkeep problems (urine smell, corroded wallpaper, even bed-bug reports and uneven conditions between floors) that made it feel unsafe. Great clinical staff, but because of security and hygiene issues I would be very cautious about recommending this place.
