    Pros

    I was cooped up in the kitchen, but from what I experienced the staff were great. They were very friendly and encouraging to me, made sure I had the proper training and was confident, and really seemed to care about the seniors there. Was there height of COVID and they took every precaution to make sure seniors were safe.

    Cons

    Some nurses I ran into seemed to be very overworked, especially those who cared for the seniors that had dementia.
