Stealing from residents and violating their rights is a common practice.

This place is STEALING from these poor guys! $2000 per bed. They get less than prison food, a blanket and carpeting from the 70’s and there’s 2 beds per room.

The Ruth Smith Center is a remarkable community based living environment for individuals who need the services they offer. They provide around the clock care for my father and the other residents with the upmost kindness and compassion. The staff that I've personally met or engaged with by phone have really impressed me and I know my father is in good hands. He speaks very highly of the staff and the all around care he receives and living environment. Highly recommend. In addition every time I've been to the center to visit my father I've noticed how clean and tidy the living room area was.
