Glacier Hills is all about the money. They could care less about peoples health from my point of view. My opinion is they have knowingly exposed workers and residents to harmful asbestos on many occasions. From my point of view they knew it was there and dangerous but choose to not disclose it to the workers or the seniors living there and allowed it to be removed causing exposure to workers and residents with no safeguards. They were investigated by the state and had 4 serious violations for this and and settled it. They continued to risk exposure after this investigation from my point of view. You can go to OSHA and look it up under inspection #1711873.015. Report # 0552651. Citation ID #'s 01001A, 01001B, 01001C, 01001D.What do you like most about living here?
