About Alpine Breeze Health and Wellness

Families searching for safety find only terror behind Alpine Breeze’s doors. Every major review site and Medicare itself stamp this facility with a single, scathing star, while a 0 % staff vaccination rate leaves already-frail residents exposed to deadly infection. Federal regulators have levied $17,000 in fines and uncovered 23 separate health-code violations, yet alarms still blare—call bells ignored, medications skipped, basic care withheld. Lawsuits pile up, charging that chronic neglect and reckless understaffing have cost lives, turning final years into living nightmares.

Survivors describe darker scenes still: loved ones tied to chairs, struck, and left helpless, their cries met with indifference. These are not isolated outbursts but a pattern so brutal that multiple bereaved families blame Alpine Breeze directly for the deaths of those they held most dear. By adding your voice, you can rip away the last shreds of secrecy protecting this house of harm, fuel investigations, and help shut its doors before more lives are shattered. Speak out—because silence is the accomplice of abuse.
