Less then impressed

Since my mom has been there (4 months)they have fired the Admin and then fired the activity director. The main reason why we moved mom there was because we originally liked how they had different activates daily for the residence. Since letting the Activity director go the activities have been lacking. My mom loves to play bingo and I know its not good when she complains about the bingo activity.

Mom really liked this place. It was warm and inviting and she liked the location because it is close to an area that she is familiar with.
