This place is horrible. The staff are terrible to the residents and don’t really care for their well being, they are all drama filled including the head of the company. The staff is rude and disrespectful to each other and it shouldn’t be tolerated. This place needs shut down immediately!
They have no hot water no linen. The residents don’t get showers. The bathrooms are disgusting. The housekeeping is run by someone who is never there and always smells like marijuana. All the residents and staff complain to the Administrator and she does nothing. Some staff are abusive to the residents and nothing happens. The food is barely edible. This place needs to be shut down. Residents have state on speed dial.
Lewis and Clark Gardens Nursing Facility is what gives Nursing homes a bad name. 90 % of the staff was good but the food was normally served cold! I was sent there for Rehab. The contracted Physical Therapists was great but the OT therapy was 50/50. As for safety, the OT therapist allowed me to fall after I told her I was getting weak. Not able to get out of bed alone, bed changing was scary, being a small bed and a big guy the aids understood the dilemma of being rolled towards the floor side in a small bed with no side rails this is why one side was pushed to the wall. The smells of urine could over take your breath and the noise from others from their personal TVs being allowed to be at full volume 24/7 was totally untolerable. Once my insurance stopped paying for therapy I was out of that Hell Hole as fast as I could arrange transportation.
My x husband was in this horrible place a few years back. My son went to visit his dad one day and found him sitting naked in a wheel chair, no blanket and of course cold. Staff said they were on break. Another time he found his dad with stitches in his head. They told him he fell out of bed. What was a man doing in a top bunk of a bed who was dying of cancer and on hospice. So, unless this place has changed hands for the much better, I would never take anyone here.
My husband was there for a little over 5 years. In the beginning it was a typical nursing home, with a very good director. He was friendly, he talked to all residents, knew them by name, and he helped out when needed. I tried to move my husband a couple of times, but he was nervous to leave as he had amazing nurses, aides, therapists that absolutely treated him like family. He was worried that he would not have a "family" , Tracy, Yuster, Keisha, Charlene, Pat, Yvette , Tamiko, Kylen, and Tammy if he left. So we stayed. Very wrong decision. The wound nurse that was there would not listen to anyone and kept putting regular tape on his wounds that would then create more wounds, she had no idea what she was doing. Again , I was very thankful for his "family" that watched over him when I could not. Fast forward to about 15-18 months, a new director came in, talked in none of the residents, unfriendly to caretakers, took special treats away from the residents, such as ice cream, snacks at night, soda, and anything extra, to save money for her bonus. The house doctor was absolutely just as worthless as the director. He used to tell me my husband had diabetes, which he did not, high blood pressure, which he did not. He wanted to do invasive surgery, and I would not let him, because my husband did not need it. He did not know patients at all, because he would just check blood pressure and move on to the next patient. He would also not let another doctor in because he was always right and no one could question him, he was not always right. My husband passed away this year. The director never said anything about his passing, did not even acknowledge that he passed. Very sad, that even when she wanted something from me a month later, still did not acknowledge my husband. Place is dirty, smells, food is horrible, and the director and the director above her hire friends and family that are not qualified for the jobs they are hired to do. They just pay friends and family for doing nothing, and that is what the do...Nothing. The director of Social Services, is the daughter of a Director, and is very uniformed about her job.
