I was employed here, and I would not recommend this place to anybody. I experienced very, very poor, inept and inadequate management here.
They will make nursing assistant work a nightmare for you, those who lead this adult home are completely evil, arrogant and racists
I DON'T RECOMMEND this adult home at all, it's a total setup of crooks. I had to take my mom out of this place because of their unethical practices, stylish fraudulent acts, maltreatment of the adults, poor management, bad food given to the adults and untrained staffs. I had to report the issue to the authorities and still waiting for the necessary actions to be taken with all the evidences I provided. Don't take your adult to this place
