Anie Adcock
Very sad when I went to visit a dear friend. She was very upset that the nurse put her to bed and she needed to go to the bathroom, I went and got a nurse and explained that she needs the bathroom not bed. This was a Sunday so when finished she went to church. The place smelled of urine and unclean.
