Pros

There really are some good quality people that work for the Good Samaritan. The ideals that the founders of this corporation had were based on solid principles that center on caring for elderly persons in need.

Cons

The Good Samaritan has some poorly founded facility wide regulations that are corporate wide. I believe the insurance could be improved and made available at a lower cost for individuals.
