My father was admitted to this facility after being in the hospital to be able to regain his strength. The goal was for him to return home. My father had dementia and was a fall risk.At first, we believed the facility was a good fit as the staff we had interacted with seemed nice enough. I visited every day. However, I did notice that most times I visited, I was doing things for my Dad that should have been the staff responsibly. The biggest part of that was helping him to the restroom and making sure his oxygen was on him. My Dads dementia was at the point where he didnt understand that he couldnt do things on his own. His unsteadiness on his feet should have warranted him having precautions in place (fall mat, bed alarm pad, etc.). When he was first admitted there was a fall mat in the room. However, I never saw it used. Also, there was a call button for the nurse, but with my Dads dementia, there was no way he would remember it or even understand he was to use it (I reiterated many times Dads inability to make decisions and/or remember what he needed to do). He wasnt wearing any kind of fall risk bracelet and there was no evidence of staff treating him as such, which was concerning. The one time I saw him in the PT area, he was sitting in the wheelchair eating a full sized KitKat bar (my Dad was also diabetic and would eat sweets any chance he got). Of course they thought it was great. I made mention of it so, they knew I noticed. Every time I visited, he was either in bed or in the wheelchair. Not once had I seen an attempt for him to use the Walker, when he was using it well the last days of him being in the hospital. When I asked about it, the nursing staff would tell me they had not been \"signed off\" to help him with the walker, or my favorite excuse¦ its above my pay grade. The last day my mom and I paid Dad a visit for lunch, again he was brought in by wheelchair. He also was not wearing his oxygen. I asked to speak to his nurse. The nurse came in and seemed to have a chip on his shoulder for having to be there. I asked why my dad wasnt wearing his oxygen¦his answer was, I was told he refused. (My Dad never refusesd something hed been asked to do). I asked to speak to who dad refused to. Two CNAs came in the room; one I knew, the second I had never seen before. Apparently the one I had never delt with was the one who said Dad brushed the oxygen away. However, it was after wearing his CPAP all night. She never tried to follow up with Dad for his oxygen (no one did for that matter). So, my Dad had gone an extended amount of time without it (which significantly decreased his cognition and stability). They immediately brought in oxygen while Mom and I were there and dad didnt even question wearing it. The nurse was very argumentative with me when I questioned the care my dad was receiving and the CNA I had worked with before was more informative. The nurse eventually got agitated enough and said Im out of here. Once he left the atmosphere was much lighter and we spoke civilly with the CNA and voiced our concerns. We were there from about 1pm until about 3:30pm. At 5:30pm that night my Mom got a call that my dad had fallen and was being transferred to the hospital. Due to the injuries he suffered from the fall (because he was not given proper fall risk precautions, in my opinion). He was hospitalized and was not able to recover. I have so much I could add but, it would be a book.If you have a family member who requires more direct supervision, I would never recommend this facility. Or at least be on top of them 24/7 (which family shouldnt have to be).This may be taken down as it does not give you the 4-5 stars others have¦but its the truth. Be careful, be aware.***BTW check out the other reviewers, the majority are reviewing many other facilities as well... questionable, to say the least!*** more ... hide ...
