Despite offering a broad array of care services, reviews about Sanctuary At Holy Cross reveal a polarizing perspective on the quality of care and management. Some families commend specific staff members for their dedicated and compassionate care, noting strong communication and administration assistance. However, there are several reports indicating systemic problems, such as ineffective communication, subpar rehabilitation services, and neglectful care practices. Additional concerns include chronic understaffing, significant staff turnover, and prolonged response times to call lights. Issues with resource management are also evident, with incidents of cold meals and maintenance problems.
