Sandalwood is a beautiful skilled nursing facility with highly skilled and compassionate care givers. Thank you for going above and beyond for your short-stay rehab patients and long-term care residents!
I would not recommend this facility. My mom needed a rehab facility after a hospital stay and on her insurance this was one of the choices. After touring the facility I thought it would be a great fit. However, since being here her care has been sub par. Her food/meal trays have not been delivered to her room. Her clothes have been taken to be laundered and have not returned. She’s missing many pieces of clothing. We’re have continually asked about her laundry. We always get excuses as to how they have too many residents and they can’t keep track. We have received an assessment for her physical therapy and such, but when I asked what her schedule was, they said they don’t really do schedules. Regarding medical care- we have requested to speak to a physician regarding her medicine and lab work. We have yet to hear back on those. She has listed her call light and it has gone in answered. The worst is you cannot speak to someone working because they got a new phone system and apparently they don’t know how to use it. Whenever concerns or questions are made it’s one excuse after another. Luckily my mom is here for a short stay. If it was longer I would absolutely be looking for a different facility to transfer her too.
This facility is beautiful and the staff working here are kind and helpful. I was especially impressed with the management. Wonderful people.
Placing a loved one in a facility is always a difficult decision. Both of my parents were residents of Sandalwood Skilled Nursing. From the moment I walked in the front door I felt welcomed and confident that they were in good hands. The environment is cheerful and well kept. The entire staff is professional, knowledgeable, friendly and caring.
After a hospital stay, my sweet Mom was (at the last minute), denied the ability to return to her assisted living facility (where she had resided for over 6 years), and we were left scrambling. After many phone calls and previewing quite a few (disappointing) LTC facilities in a 24 hour period, a family member recommended Sandalwood. I have to say, I was blown away by so many of the staff members. Mom only lived for a short time, but the staff worked hard to get to know her (and me), and her needs, quickly. Her room was clean and fresh, and we made it into a cozy environment very easily. There was always someone available to resource, and I never felt like I was a bother, even though our situation was quite desperate, and I was spending a lot of time there. Based on my/our experience, I would absolutely recommend this private, well-established LTC to anyone who has a cherished loved one.
