Black mold on ceiling

The rooms are outdated and there was black mold on the ceiling. I brought it to their attention but they said said they couldn’t move me because they were full. So they did nothing about it. She said they have had issue with it. I have stage 4 cancer and I really didn’t want to stay in that room but had no choice.
