My grandmother has been on site for weeks and the entire staff has been absolutely wonderful. They go out of their way to make sure everything is comfortable and to her liking. The staff knows their patients so well and it’s clear that they genuinely care deeply about those in their facility. When my grandmother had to leave for a short time, they kept in touch, asking how she was doing, and were so happy she was safe and sound when she came back. I’m so thankful for everyone at Parkridge. Thank you for all you do! - Dr. Ford

My brother was admitted to Parkridge To finish his antibiotic treatment. Then my brother was going to be admitted for long term care. 2 weeks went by my brother had severe diarrhea. Crapping all over himself,bed,floor. On this day he was covered and laying in feces. When I asked nurses about cleaning bed and washing off himself they told me not until Thursday. I immediately removed him from this facility. Next day he was admitted to emergency care for 5 days with severe, highly contagious colon infection. Not to mention they didnt even check him after treatments to see what damage the treatment caused. Now my brother had emergency open heart again. The care in this facility non existent at best My brother would be dead now under there care.

We could not be happier with the care our loved one receives currently at Parkridge Specialty Care! Excellent nurses and management. Don’t believe the negative naysayers, some people are just never happy.

The care my mother in law has received is HORRIBLE! There are only 3 people who have taken amazing care of her, while everyone else looks like they hate their job and the residents. She isn't changed enough, they never answer call lights, it even scrolls in the hallway what room needs something and no one ever comes! There is 1 staff member who is ABSOLUTELY ABUSIVE in my opinion and walks in like she's God and I have heard her yell at residents when they need something. Waiting to hear a call back from D. O. N *I do want to give a shoutout to Sarah, Michele F and Leslie, they are amazing and deserve recognition. If I could put 5 stars on JUST THEM I WOULD!

I would not recommend this facility. There are a few very good F/T staff, which need to find a better place to be appreciated. My 98 yr old mother thought we lived in an apt. due to me staying almost 24/7 to make sure medications were administered properly, that she had help with meals due to broken dominant arm. It was a 5 month nightmare. 1 star is too high of a rating for this facility, although the few F/T permanent staff deserve a 5.
