"Safety not a priority."

Bed very comfortable. B'fast 5/5. Concerned about safety, or lack of, in bathroom. No safety strips in shower floor. No safety bars at all in shower. Unable to adjust shower head spray. Also, on leaving day, no cart to help with getting personal items to our vehicle with a cart. Learned that there are only four carts in the whole facility. One of those was loaded when we went down for b'fast. It was parked in the b'fast area and still there (loaded) 30 minutes later.
