My grandmother was recently at Blue Lake Post Acute for therapy. I would like to thank the therapy team (Karrie, Ian, and Howie) for always listening to her and making sure she was able to do the things needed so we could bring her back home. The nursing staff of Alana and her team had great patience and ensured that she got what she needed within a timely manner. I would recommend Blue Lake to anyone needing help getting back home! - Jamal
Just an FYI , my sister has been here for a few months and every time I have visited her , the place has smelled nice and clean clients are well taking care of! My sister enjoys her meals so much that she asked for seconds! Praise God! My sister was malnourished upon arrival! So we are very grateful for the cook! Every one has been wonderful talking great care of our sister! Thanks to you all! God bless! ❤️
As a generous person, I am giving this hellhole a one star, oh do I wish there is a zero star option though this place doesn’t even deserve a zero star, it deserves to be shut down. This is a “rehab center”, though my loved one has not left the bed in four days. Why? Because she couldn’t. The poor lady was drugged up beyond belief, are you trying to kill her? Other people shouldn’t have to tell your money hungry staff that there is a limit to how many drugs one can take. It’s common sense that in your pebble sized mind is not common. On the outside it’s a near decent place with air condition units but on the inside is a place is such bad condition with no air condition and not even the wooden floor was placed right. I’m starting to think the staff was high which wouldn’t surprise me because I heard a bunch of petty ladies talking about weed and drugs. Talk about and take drugs outside of the place but not here and especially don’t drug the patients with random medication that can’t even be pronounced by even the most on point speakers in all of human history. Not even my family could breathe in the tight, cramp rooms. They could all inhale smoke from a fire and their lungs would be in better condition than if they breathed in those rooms. Alligator Alcatraz has better living conditions than this. My loved one has developed bed sores that should have been prevented but weren’t because then again, the nurses don’t even do their jobs. They have used excuses such as the aggressive behavior with my loved one which is reasonable to sedate her if it gets to that point but doesn’t mean her on not one, not two, but four different medications that made her higher than a skyscraper which should not happen under any condition. The nurses know, the staff know, they know but they just run their petty little mouths and do the bare minimum of work. They do less work than a couch potato and it has caused my loved one not only pain but a memorable experience she would want to forget. I am telling you to run, not walk away from this hellhole disguised as a rehab center. If you want your loved one to be safe, send them anywhere but here.
My husband has been there for 2 weeks, has yet to be offered assistance with a shower. He is diabetic, they are checking blood sugar after meals then giving sliding scale insulin which is causing his sugar levels to drop too low instead of testing before meals. Meds are given up to 2 hours late in some cases. When he rings for his meds, there is one nurse that tells him they are scheduled and he doesn't need to ring, was also told another time by same nurse not to rush her. There are some very nice nurses and cnas, however he has been made to feel like it's a problem asking questions, asking for help, or even asking for his medications. I understand being short staffed or even running behind. What I don't understand is checking blood sugar after a meal then giving sliding scale. Feel like nursing needs to be reeducated on diabetic care and management. Would also like to see that he gets assistance with showering without me coming to assist him again. There have been other issues however, they are corrected immediately (toilet constantly not flushing and TV issues). Housekeeping has done great keeping room clean and building not smelling of urine. Staff has been very friendly minus the 1 nurse. I gave a 2 star due to the issue with diabetic care as that is life threatening.
Blue Lake post acute has met all my expectations. I left a new man. I want to personally think the admission team for all the kindness and care and attention that I received from them both, but I have to give a personal thank you to Mrs. Sara admission who took the time out to purchase me more drawing supply so I could continue my passion The care that I receive from all the nurses and staff here is wonderful. I also want to say thank you to the rehab team because of you guys I was able to leave out a new man with all my needs met. I wanna give a special thank you to dietary who always cooked an amazing meal. I can always go to the kitchen and ask for extra Food and snacks. This place has done an amazing turnaround. It was very easy for me to express myself to anyone in the facility. I love the fact that activities has different Activities daily it just was a place that I felt welcomed. I was always happy. I’m left here with a smile on my face again thank you blue light for all that you do. I recommend this place to anyone Juan Ortiz.
