Very Disappointing

What CRC/Towsley was and what it is today is vastly different. The few (non agency) staff, 1 staff to 12 or more residents, are overworked and stressed to the degree of harm to residents. Sadly too many family members drop their loved one off trusting the standard of care that was advertised and do not come in often to observe and hold CRC accountable for the large amount of money it takes in for each Memory Care resident. Though the idea of neighborhoods may have been nice, the residents are locked in these terrib

Caring staff!!

My father was originally here for Rehab, but when a room opened up on the permanent side, we moved him in. the staff is so caring and welcoming. My sister visits him often and she is thrilled with the way things are going. The place is clean and not as nice as other places, but the care is over the top.
