"Carpets were cleaned throughout bldg., however the stains are back & actually it looks worse than before, personally I think it was $$$ down the drain. Still having a huge problem with staffing as the meals are mostly Buffet & by that I mean, just what's listed on the menu for that meal, so if you don't care for it or if have dietary restrictions your out of luck! We were told approximately 7 wks. ago at least 4 or more severs were hired BUT where are they??? Have seen 1, yes, I know they have to meet certain requirements however this is beyond ridiculous & most residents are fed up with this! Still haven't received a perk I was told I'd get as a new resident over 6 mos. ago, so not holding my breath on that. Today I was totally humiliated at Bingo & ended up leaving before the last game as I was holding bk. tears!! I love Bingo , but will never attend again!!! So sad!" - Sharon…
