I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident The rapid rate of staff turnover which has compromised the quality of care for my loved one who is also on HOSPICE! This concern is top down from the facility Administrator who is now an interim administrator, and the contracted nurses who never get to know the residents/hospice patients. Their inability & refusal to communicate with families and HOSPICE personnel is untenable. An interim Administrator that over promises and under-delivers is of paramount concern. And the ... read more

I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident My mother in law contracted Covid 19 in this nursing home. It’s been a week of no treatment for her! Just put her on a Covid hall. No meds to help. Luckily her family calls every day. Today we could tell she was gasping to breath. So we BEGGED them for a blood oxygen. It was 74!!! Irresponsible! They let her get dehydrated and took many try’s for an IV. They said she had no fever but she’s at the hospital now and it’s 103! They could have killed her. She’s diabetic, on oxy... read more

I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident I admitted my mother to this facility August 6, 2015. On the 15th they had to file an Incident Report when we found a “grab and yank” handprint on her upper left arm. On the 19th they had to file another report when we found her left leg bruised from the knee to the ankle – no one was watching and the steel on her wheelchair was bruising her every time her leg rubbed against it. We installed a motion sensor video/audio camera in her room for her protection. September 13th ... read more

I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident I visited a friend over the weekend that has just recently been moved to the Rehab part of the facility. the smell and filth of the room disgusted me. NO ONE should be subjected to these conditions. The nursing care or I should say lack of, all I can say is the nurses should be ashamed as should the whole staff. I leave my dog in a facility that smell nice and is clean, its too bad our elderly are not treated as well as animals.

Other This facility has a decent Rehab,but the skilled nursing and general care is terrible..My husband has been there a month and it is a daily battle to keep him clean and fed...He is 83 ,has a broken tibia due to a fall...I do NOT recommend this place and the ADMINISTRATION is always unavailable.They must not have a dishwasher because all food is sent out in starfoam boxes, the food is poorly prepared,but will sustain life.My real question is how it is allowed to operate ,Medicare must have lowered its standards.

I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident My grandmother was here, the facility was fine until they moved her to the Alzheimer part of the facility. My mother went out of town for 3 days in which they did not change her. Grandmother developed pneumonia which they did not tend to efficiently, if we had not moved her she would have died there. The lady that she shared a room with was unable to feed herself and they would bring her food tray in and leave her to fend for herself, thank goodness her daughter came and f... read more

I am a friend or relative of resident My Mom was here for less than a month before she died. She was in the last stages of cancer. There was lots of management and staff running around during the day, Less people sometimes hiding out using cellphones at night and weekends. The care seemed more focused on being effiecient to the detrement of individual patient care. A people warehouse. Staff and our Hospice Care didn't get along and staff suggested we should change to their affilliated Hospice. Mom labeled the staff as "cold"... read more

I am a friend or relative of resident The nursing care is not efficient - this is supposed to be a 24 hour skilled nursing facility. The nurses are not up-to-date on the latest medical care. You have to alert them on deteriorating conditions of patient, they will not alert you - that is not a skilled nursing facility. This is a medicare facility!
