I cannot say enough good things about Bedford Care Center in Picayune, MS, and its incredible staff. From the cleaning team to the nurses, aides, and management, everyone treated my mother and our family with kindness, respect, and compassion. Her private room was always clean and well cared for, and I was consistently kept informed about her condition and needs. Communication was excellent, and I always felt reassured knowing she was in good hands. It gave me great peace of mind to see how genuinely they cared, especially during such a difficult time. I am deeply grateful for the professionalism, patience, and heart shown by every member of the team. I highly recommend this facility to any family looking for loving, quality care for their loved one.
My brother was very ill from serious brain damage. He was NEVER brought to a doctor of his own, such as a Neurologist. Just b/p checks, oxygen levels, and his temperature. He went to the E.R. numerous times for falling and busting his head, and sometimes needing stitches. After numerous times asking, they NEVER ONCE brought him to physical therapy, which he needed. My 85 year old mother would bring special things of his to feel more comfortable. A beautiful big expensive BIBLE that he asked for when he was able to speak. Beautiful robe, slippers, comfortable clothes. I bought him very thick wool socks l, colored t-shirts and a beautiful blanket that I gave to him for Christmas, when he was still at home. Momma said he would use it all of the time, and how much it meant to him. When we both would visit, we did see his bible that he would hold several times. Any way, under hospice care, they moved him soon to the end of the hall (last) room. He was neglected, left in soiled diapers and not barely being fed. We know he was going to pass eventually, but not like this. When mom or I would bring something like ice cream, he ate it down so fast. Hospice, that I met one time, came by once a week. He was suppose to be watched at the least, most of the time. No oxygen, no nothing. Didn't let us know when they knew he was passing soon!!! We wanted to be there for him. NOT ALONE! After he passed, they said that we could pick up his things. Aww, you don't have to worry about his clothes, that they would take care of them. Yeah, they steal anything that is decent ~ including the large bible, with a large print, his robe, slippers, and the blanket that he loved! Also, pillow cases that he could relate to at times. My mom was devastated over the bible that he would hold and at first, he tried reading. My mom was crying over her son, of course. But his bible was very special to her, and could not be replaced. Before passing he was put in a wheel chair with his diaper and clothes that were way too large for him. Would face him, the opposite way from the nurses area, when you could find one. I know that I am skipping around some, I do apologize! I said that I would love his clothes also. They were boxed up and ready. When I got home, it was unreal. There were clothes from other deceased patients with their names written in them. Three-quarters were not his clothes or size. My brother wore a medium, then small. These clothes were 2-3X in size. The rest of the clothes, socks that didn't match at all, while the rest looked like rags! I took out a few things of his and brought the box back. Except for the sweet lady that would let me in, a very COLD NURSE that would argue over anything, if you were willing. When I brought it in, I said take the rest in the box that was the majority of it, and apparently use them for somebody who really needs them. I told them the sizes of the clothing with a few with different names on them. Towards the end, he was nude except for his diaper with a thin sheet on him. He ALWAYS was cold. No socks! AND THE WORST PART IS THAT HE PASSED AWAY ALONE, AND HE NEVER HAD TO!! P.S. if we could have handled him at home, we definitely would have. So, unless it's totally impossible to have your loved one at home, don't do it, if you love them dearly. MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALL!!!
Beautiful place and facilities, doctors and nurses good. The aides leave a lot to be desired. Way too long a wait when you need help. I heard from an ex-aide that the ratio to patients is like 30 to 1. I really don't know just repeating what I was told.
The front desk people are usually decent when I go up there but today when I went up there the lady was very rude and called me kid. I’m a grown adult. Teach your staff to have better manners especially when they’re going to engage with the public.
My mom stayed here off an on since Nov 10th getting physical therapy to get strong enough to come home following a stroke. She had to have a great deal of hospital stays in between because of ongoing medical issues and sadly she passed away on her last hospital stay January 8th from a massive brain bleed . Other than a nurse ( that was already a personal friend) NOT ONE PERSON FROM BEDFORD CALLED TO SAY SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS OR ANYTHING.To be honest it really hurt my feelings I didn't expect cards and flowers but a simple sorry for your loss from one of the administrators there would have been nice. Also after telling them numerous times my mom wasn't going to be a permanent resident they reported to social security office that she was and tried to take her check even after she passed away if I'm wrong tell me??
