I stayed here after my back surgery. My time there was haunted by some uncaring staff. When I first arrived, I was transferred there from the hospital, i was rolled into my room and just left there. The nurse came in and introduced herself to me and then left. I sat in the wheelchair for about a half hour. I was in a hospital gown. It was cold in the room and i had no buzzer to call somebody. I had to yell until some one finally came in. Mind you i had just had major back surgery and could not get up on my own yet. My bath time was very sporadic. I went 5 days without a bath. When I asked for one I was told it's not my day. They go by what room number you have. When asked to help me to the bathroom they put an adult diaper on me and told me just to go in the diaper. I was just there for physical therapy. I'm an independent person. These occurrences only happened when 2 of my 4 aides were working. The other 2 aids were fantastic (thank you Brenda and Bri. Ya'll were great). Physical therapy was fantastic. They did their jobs and also made it fun. They made you feel like part of a family. I can't say enough about them. They have a comradory that makes you want to do the exercises to please them. Very down to earth people. Thank Ya'll very much for making my time in Physical therapy fun. All the nurses were great. I didn't have as much interaction with them. Thank you for always being on time. Overall my time there was OK. I got very depressed there. If it wasn't for the fact that most of the people there were very nice and I couldn't walk on my own yet, I would have left. A couple of times I actually asked my children to come and get me. Overall I would say it's a nice place. It's pleasant to look at look at. The rooms are nice. I would not want to stay there for too long.

Upon arrival my transfer was very chaotic. Breakfast lunch and dinner were mostly served cold. The ladies in physical therapy were absolutely the most nicest sweetest caring people. PT: Cassie, Chelsea. OT: Alanna, Lindsey,Eva. Makayla. I can honestly say that they were the highlight of the day. Which I guess is why I was here was for the physical therapy. Thank you. Pearl Rumore.😊

I was in Ponchatoula Community Care Center SNF recently for physical therapy. The staff and the care was awesome! In all departments, nursing , nursing assistants, housekeeping, dietary, activities,and administration! I have to say the physical therapy department has the best of anywhere! They go beyond and above to see progress in the patients, Knowledgeable, and very caring!

The therapy team was not only kind but they worked my hip and my arm to the point where I feel safe to be able to go back home safely. They have great bed side manners. And I just can’t thank them enough.
