Honesty is the best policy. Please do not bring your loved one to this facility. I only selected 1 star because google doesn't allow a post without a star. This place gets no stars from me! My advice**************************************************** IF YOU CAN-- keep your loved one home, for rehab. (most insurances will have cover rehab @ home). Don't listen to the hospital. If your loved one can do rehab at home, it's your choice. The hospital will recommend a rehab, but you have the last say with the care plan. This place has no time for compassionate care. There are different LPN's most days. No one takes time to learn the patients' requirements/needs, and only what they see on the chart for them to do - distributing meds and that's it!! And how can they, with a constant rotation of different LPNs. *** My dad was brought in and needed extra care, notes posted on the wall to alert them of certain things. Such as, notes on the wall to suction him constantly, which means to me, check the patient constantly because he can aspirate. No one bothers to pay attention to those requirements - I had to constantly tell the LPNs to suction my dad. I noticed that they are extremely short staff. Staff calling out constantly, which led to the management staff getting LPNs from agencies. 1 LPN on all shifts. Stolen blanket! This facility has no blankets, like the hospitals does, and they only have sheets for the beds. I get this - no compliant there. But, when your loved one comes in if they want to stay warm, they have to get their family to bring them a blanket. This is what I noticed throughout the floor - personal blankets brought in from home by the family. *******Final straw was on my father's 1.5 week there someone stole his blanket. You got it! My father was transition from the hospital to Stamford Care (Cassena Care) and brought in with limited abilities with no eyesight! Someone took (stole) his blanket that we brought for his bed to keep him warm. The facility knew from his care plan that he suffered from poor circulation, so the blanket was a necessity. ****Week 2, my dear father passed away. The blanket was never found and there was no reason given to me why, or who removed it. All the family know is that our sick, blind father, in less than 2 weeks, blanket was removed from his bed, and he was left with only the sheet. When I came in and found this situation, I engaged the LPN/CNA on duty and the next day, I called management - gave them a few more days ****they couldn't find the blanket. I put through a grievance and haven't heard back from the facility. IF YOU CAN'T --If your family members MUST go to the rehab, has special needs like my father did, please be on rotation with family members to watch your loved one and to watch the rehab. And even if they don't have special needs, please be present! While my family is mourning the loss of our father. We are not disgruntled but I felt the need to share my experience at this . That is the best advice I can give based on my experience. Everyone's experience is different. This is what happen to my father at this facility. Also, I asked, Is the place being monitored? I was told NO! I hope this information was wrong and this facility is truly being monitored. Experiences in life will only make you stronger!

Do not bring any of your loved ones to this place! Absolutely the most ghetto, unprofessional, SNF I have ever witnessed. The one star is for Kathy at PT she is absolutely amazing and was very helpful to my grandmother.’ The nursing staff would literally laugh at elderly people in pain that need assistance, I attempted to call the facility 14 times because my grandmother was very sick and needed help. She had to call 911 from her room because no staff would help her

We were very happy with the care my husband received! The staff is great, the PT department is great. I recommend it as the best choice in Stamford!! They are also very sensitive to dietary needs.

The nurses were friendly, very attentive, and answered all the questions I had about my mother’s condition and medication carefully and so I could understand. They even called the doctor from another floor so I could meet her (when I had arrived to visit just after she had done her rounds - and the doctor came back to speak with me). The facility is clean and bright with beautiful pictures on the walls. The physical therapists are motivating and gentle with my mother and she has really improved since arriving.
