However, despite the overwhelmingly positive feedback, some concerns were raised that could affect the overall experience for some residents and their families. There were complaints regarding the staffing levels, with one reviewer stating Canterfield is understaffed and having trouble maintaining adequate levels of help. This perceived insufficiency in staffing reportedly affected the delivery of care, such as assistance with bathing and getting dressed. Additionally, issues with cleanliness and timeliness in resident care were mentioned, including one case where a resident was reportedly left in unsatisfactory conditions. The variability in the quality of staff members was noted, though it was also acknowledged that high-quality care workers are present and form strong bonds with the residents. While these critiques are concerning, they seem less frequent compared to the positive aspects highlighted by many other reviewers.
