My Father broke his hip and went to Apache Junction Health Center for Rehab after surgery. The staff was non-attentive, left him in places without his walker so he couldn't move. Did not check on him regularly, so often his bed was wet. He developed heel bedsores and buttock bedsores all due to poor nursing care. Also due to poor management of safety measures, he contracted COVID and died. DO NOT USE THIS FACILITY. YOUR LOVED ONES WILL DIE..

Dad had to stay here for a short recovery & a couple individuals spoiled the experience with their bad attitude. For example, Tina Marie, a physical therapist, wouldn't even greet him when coming in... She would go directly to the wall and do paperwork on it with her back to us, and when dad stood up to go do his PT, her response once was, "If he falls, that's on you." This isn't the type of curt language used by all the staff, but there are a few individuals that need to be pulled aside for a course on how we greet and trea... read more
