Review Summary
The following is an AI generated summary of the reviews of the community from across the web.
Lyngblomsten has garnered mixed reviews, with some highlighting excellent care, particularly for those in hospice, and others pointing out significant issues with staff and management. Positive comments often mention the caring and compassionate nature of some nurses and staff members, with specific praise for the attentive and friendly nature of the team. Many reviewers appreciate the facility for its clean rooms, well-designed spaces for recovery, and additional amenities like art classes and a hair salon.
However, there are serious concerns raised by some reviewers regarding the treatment of residents, particularly in terms of medical care and personal attention.
