Rude front desk worker, if you don’t like people get a job elsewhere

I was a patient at this facility of few months ago, so I speak from firsthand experience when I tell you that this facility is old, dated and not well maintained. Filthy a/c vents and concentrated oxygen machines, as well as a constant odor of feces. No portable oxygen machines that work, call light broken, and inadequate staff. All of the aides were kind and attentive and treated me with respect. So appreciated since the nursing staff was irritable and condescending. I went to this facility for physical therapy and received NONE. The owners of this establishment need to sink some money into updates of decor(everything is circa 1980), purchase and maintenance of medical equipment, and hiring adequate, professional and compassionate nursing staff instead of being only profit- driven!

Hello, I have been at this facility for 3 years. It’s a typical nursing home. Everyone is kind and helpful. Food is good and we get plenty for snacks and do activities. I plan to stay here, anytime I have questions someone comes to help.

I'd like to give it 0 stars. I've been in 4 facilities in my life and this one is by far the worse. The food they serve here is not only inedible, it's nasty, slopped together, sometimes dangerous due to being undercooked, and sometimes overcooked or old. Not to mention there's no way the diets they provide are meeting legal standards as far as balance and calorie count. Food never matches what is printed on the meal ticket and never one have all the items that are designated on the ticket as part of the diet were actually there. Nurses, cna's and management have all informed me they have made numerous complaints and advocated for these conditions to change for years. Only to be met with resistance from corporate. They also said all the kitchen managers have been worthless but the current is the worst. Nurses even went as far to inform me they have been reprimanded for their patients constantly losing weight and they said what is expected with the quality and quanity of the food they've raised a concern about. You ask for things to get done here, or to speak with certain departments or department heads and they repeatedly neglect you and neglect coming to see you. I had this issue with both physical therapy department and the dietary department. Nurses are great, so are a lot of cna's, the front desk lady, and the unit manager specifically are great, kind and caring people. Who both advocate for residents and do as much as they can, but they're limited in their power and what they can accomplish.
