Questions to take to The Lodge at Mills River

The published staff-turnover figure is 55.6%. Ask which reporting period it covers and how the current staffing team compares.
Ask who is responsible for care decisions locally and at SANSTONE HEALTH & REHABILITATION. A shared affiliation does not establish identical care at every location.
Check the source date and the latest official record before deciding. Bring the issues above to a visit or call rather than treating the profile as a recommendation.
