People that I will never forget. Anna Sipperly, her attention to detail was unsurpassed she was there through thick and thin multitasking and working with wound VAC people. Brad Thompson works hard harder than any individual I have ever seen in a workforce. Don't lose this man give him a raise if you can. Lori. Stockton Was this kind as any one could be and helped me out with the wound VAC that was instrumental in my healing of my foot. Omar Ariella, and the entire occupationa health team We're an a pleasure to work with .Amber Guyette is a strong leader and goes above and beyond the normal aspects of doing the job of coordinating The occupational therapy people. Dr. Kane always had a smile on his face and made a person feel very assured that all would be OK. The gang and social services rocked.

PA Kang has been so awesome taking care of my mom at Yuma Nursing Center. My mom had a fall and was sent over to Yuma Nursing Center Rehab for about 3 weeks. With Occupational Therapy and the Nursing Staff my mom greatly improved and was able to return back to her apartment at Assisted Living. I highly recommend Yuma Nursing Center!! Thankful for PA Kang and Dr. Silao!

Before my 92 year old mom's doctor got her into Yuma Nursing Center my mom was in the hospital then at Rehab and then an Assisted living facility. My mom was sent from one place to the other without any idea why, what changes were made to her meds, no one seemed to be overseeing my moms care and looking big picture. She was depressed, I was stressed, her friends wanted only the best and yet confusion reigned. Finally Dr. Kang said she needs to go to Yuma Nursing Center., they will take care of her and then she can go home. She did, they did and she is home. They were super great to work with both as a family member and as a patient. It was such a relief to feel like someone had a plan and the staff to make it happen. Knowledgeable about senior care and the unique process required to get the proper care and communicate it effectively to family and patient. Understanding that the clientele is not just old folk not worth even trying to include in their own care. Skilled enough to increase mobility, reduce pain, improve cognitive skills including memory by utilizing Physical, Speech, and Occupational Therapy in real world applications. If you get to chose, this is the caring, compassionate, and safe respite you need to fully recover. providing exceptional care and support to individuals and their families.

My grandmother’s experience at Yuma Nursing Home was deeply troubling. While receiving care there, she faced multiple issues that raised concerns about patient safety, staff responsiveness, and discrimination. 1. Neglect and Safety Issues: Initially, my grandmother was in a private room, but she was later moved after experiencing a fall. She told me that when she pressed her call light, staff often took too long to respond, which led to her attempting to use the restroom on her own—resulting in her fall. This lack of attentiveness is unacceptable in a facility responsible for vulnerable patients. 2. Unsafe Environment: After being moved, my grandmother was assigned a roommate whose husband was allowed to enter the facility intoxicated. One night, he got aggressive with my grandmother, verbally attacking her and calling her offensive names. It took the staff far too long to intervene, which raises serious concerns about security and patient protection. If a verbal altercation like this can escalate unchecked, what would happen in a more serious situation? Even after the police were called to remove the man, staff was unsure whether he would be allowed back on the premises, which was unsettling. A CNA informed me that a higher-up would be calling me to confirm whether the man would be allowed back, but I never received a call for 4 days. I had to reach out myself, and even then, I didn’t get an immediate answer—I had to wait for yet another call before finally getting a response. 3. Discriminatory Treatment: A specific staff member at the side door on weekends exhibited prejudiced and sexist behavior. He forced me to sign in while allowing men to enter without doing so and treated different racial groups inconsistently. When my grandmother confronted him about this, he gave an insincere apology but continued the same behavior. 4. Lack of Accountability: I reported these concerns to HR, including the discrimination and security issue involving my grandmother’s confrontation. While they assured me that the intoxicated man would not be allowed back, they downplayed the situation by claiming he had dementia—despite the fact that he drove himself to the facility. As for the discrimination issue, HR showed no real intention of addressing it, making it clear that such behavior is tolerated. Final Thoughts: If you are Black or have Black family members, I strongly advise against placing your loved ones in Yuma Nursing Home. The staff and administration do not prioritize patient safety, and their failure to address discrimination is unacceptable. Unfortunately, this isn’t just a problem with the facility—it’s reflective of the culture in Yuma.
