Absolutely pathetic RNs here. Do not send your elderly relatives here - unbelievable lack of empathy from staff. Would rate 0 if I could.

RNs have no sympathy or respect for patients and their families. Your elderly family is probably better off in a retirement home that cares.

Could not ask for a better, kinder, more loving centre to care for our mum in her last months. Their palliative care was superb - and they looked after us as her family so kindly as well.
