Thus place is horrible! The staff treat patients worse than dogs! And then lie and make excuses when you complain! I found my loved one naked with no clothes or blankets or access to water on one occasion and laying in dried vomit on another. I have complained to adult protective services and health department and will be moving him immediately! Run away as fast as you can!
