I give this place one star. If I could give NEGATIVE STARS I WOULD!!!! I was recently a patient there and I had many issues like not getting a bath when told I would. Also waiting long periods of time for an Aide to come into my room after ringing the buzzer. I ENDED UP HAVING TO CALL A STATE OMBUDSMAN TO HELP ME WITH THESE ISSUES. I knew THEN I made a HUGE mistake coming to this facility. But the thing that really made me leave the place was in the middle of the night an Aide came into my room woke me up and said to me THEY ARE NOT TAKING YOUR HEALTH SERIOUSLY HERE. I WANT to now THANK THAT AIDE for telling me that. The next day I started making arrangements to be moved to another Nursing Home. IF YOU really LOVE your LOVED ONE I highly recommend you do NOT Admitt Your Loved One to this facility!!!! BEING THERE WAS THE WORST MISTAKE OF MY LIFE!!!!!!
If I could give a negative review I would. This place is absolutely trash and I wouldn’t trust them with a dead dog. Originally my aunt went there following a stroke. My aunt who is extremely confused, doesn’t even know her own family was kidnapped by another family member. Originally the facility stated that she left a note stating she wanted to change her POA and then left. The police get involved start searching; after HOURS the police call the facility to get medication information so they know they are dealing with a medical emergency and the facility changes the story and says she was alert and oriented so they let her leave AMA! This women has not been oriented for MONTHS! Now my aunt who is medically unstable is unaccounted for. The facility has changed the story multiple times. Do not send your loved ones here!
Absolutely the lowest of care. My loved one was transferred there from a hospital without us knowing ahead of time. This place has no cameras, so the staff steals whatever they want. My loved one was in a horrific auto accident and was doing well with therapy on walking again. This nursing facility has done Nothing! She came in on 2/14/24 and has been lying on her back with no care,whatsoever! I filed a complaint with the state. They stated the nursing home meets federal standards, so they won't investigate. Now it all makes sense! Please do not leave your lived one there! It takes an act of Congress to get them transferred to another facility. This is almost April and we are still hearing from the staff that they lost the paperwork,etc. Bullshit tactics.
My 86 yr old dad stayed here for approximately three weeks for rehabilitation after a hospital stay. The daily care was sub par. He was rarely helped to sit up or get out of bed. He did received is required hours of rehab however if you don't regular move and get out of bed it is zero help. He was constantly fed pureed food which we requested be stopped. It never was and he lost so much weight. He eventually had to be transferred to another facility because medicare stopped paying due to lack of progress. He has since recovered and is ready to go home. Do not recommend.
Majority of the staff is pretty caring and attentive to residents. There are always a few bad apples that can make things hard on everyone. My regular nurses on the Advance 360 side are the coolest. Shout out to the hospitality aides that put up with a lot of grief from people higher up the ladder. Credit to the STNA’s for putting up with me. Laundry crew is polite and speedy. I wish I could say better things about the cafeteria. But kind of a limited menu weekly. Same meals served on a regular basis. Some strange food combinations as well. Have been treated with extreme rudeness by one of the lead cooks because I asked for a burger. Not because I wasn’t going to eat what was served. Just because there wasn’t enough food to tide anyone over from dinner until breakfast.
