2017-12-12 07:14:54 PM rickyd We discuss resident concerns, likes, dislikes, menu and snack items. We also review the resident's feedback on each department, i.e., nursing, therapy, dietary, and activities. All feedback (good and or bad) is sent to the Executive Administator and reviewed at staff meetings. Each department head also receives a copy of their departments feedback from the residents.
