I’m almost a year late with this review but better late that never. Stearn’s will forever get a wonderful review from me. My mother arrived there in terrible condition, she wasn’t eating, frail and very sick. She couldn’t do much for herself but by the time she left after 2 1/2 months she was completely back to doing for herself, eating and had gone from 98lbs to 141 lbs. I absolutely appreciate the staff and have the greatest respect and admiration for them. My mother was taken care of very well and I will forever be grateful to them. I simply cannot express my gratitude!
If you have someone here please check on them. Check for a fever. Make sure they are eating and drinking. Check for sores and infections. My father laid there and got so sick he couldnt move. Sores and infections lead to a blood infection. I was up there enough to know how much he was neglected. I should have visited this place and met the people that would be (not) caring for my father and did my research before he went there to be neglected. Please take my warning very seriously.
If you love your family at all, even a small amount even if you hate them. Don't bring them here, this place is so deceptive and rude. The nurses are amazing, the issue is the administration. They took paperwork for my grandma's Medicaid and never filed for Medicaid. Sent bills to an address my aunt hasn't lived at in 20 years. They will not contact you or be honest about the care they give to your family member. They almost killed my aunt who is special needs. She went from using the bathroom on her own in a wheelchair to having her first stroke and suffering 2 heart attacks in her life after being at Stearns for only 4 months. If you love your family please do not bring them here.
This is probably the most important review I ever gave on Google. I get it this family stuff is extremely emotional for all loved ones involved however the staff at this facility have a lot on there plate and the bottom line is the staff at the nursing home are out to take care of people the best they can. From what I see so far they are doing an outstanding job with my father. My dad went from a really bad situation to being on track doing much better very quickly once he was brought to this nursing home. I think its important everyone knows that they have done me and my family right by doing an outstanding job so far.
Tried Stearns Nursing Home for about 3 weeks for my sister Donna. My recommendation is that you never ever use this place. It was horrible. The Administrator, Director of Nursing and a few of the nurses were horribly unprofessional and bullies. They tried to tell me I couldn't take Donna to the hospital without their permission and that nothing was wrong with her despite having lab work that showed red and white blood cells in her urine and you could see the blood in her catheter bag. Needless to say, I didn't succumb to their pressure and took Donna to Barnes where she was treated with antifungals for a UTI and it was discovered urine was blocked in her kidney that required an operation and a stent . When I told the administrator this, her reply was.."we called up there and they said they weren't doing anything." She actually said this while we were waiting to go to the operating room. They are absolutely delusional and talk to you like you are dumb and yell at you. This place shouldn't even be allowed to exist. It's sad and I feel sorry for the people who have no other choice. Update: She is currently still in the hospital on week 2 and it's anticipated that she still needs at least another week of care in the hospital after this week..that's how serious her infection is.
