I've had an older friend there a few years back, the place was being remodeled at that time. Don't know if service was improved. I concur, Nursing Homes are depressing, in general terms, people go there to die. If you are looking for ANY Nursing Home in this county, I think only Eunice Smith in Alton has a waiting list. Smith is located within eyesight of one hospital, and in sight of Rock Springs Park. They also have an Alzheimer's unit.
