Rose Glen Manor in North Wilkesboro, NC

As the family member of the patient attacked, referencing the December 2016 review after an assault. ... My father was knocked out, sent via ambulance to the ER. He was hit so hard you could seen the imprint of his glasses on his face for weeks, along with the knot on his forehead...then she took his glasses. I think Rose Glen Manor did the correct thing, as my father, i.e. no patient could be kept safe with such an unprovoked attack.
