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 risknAt 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 andor 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 oxygenhis 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 330pm At 530pm 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 booknIf you have a family member who requires more direct supervision I would never recommend this facility Or at least be on top of them 247 which family shouldnt have to benThis may be taken down as it does not give you the 45 stars others havebut its the truth Be careful be awarennBTW check out the other reviewers the majority are reviewing many other facilities as well questionable to say the least more ... hide ...
