I personally am not a patient there but I have visited and patients are at their mercy of the short staffing and lack of Patient Care. Their are only a few staff members that have empathy and compassion for patients and theses staff members deserve recognition. Nurses are asked to work a Double shifts, when after 10 hours a nurse's patient care is greatly impacted. The food is atrocious. Everyone gets the same food and I use that term lightly. When patients lift the cover it is most times unrecognizable as food. Vegetables are over cooked and mushy There are no specific menus for those who need special diets. The portions are very small. How is a patient to get strong and recuperate without the proper nutrition? This is supposed to be a Sub-Acute Facility but I do not believe this facility know what Sub-Acute means. People go without daily baths and most times the patients are only wiped down with a warm wet towel. How do you control infections and cleanliness that these poor souls need? There is no one on one PT. They give you exercises to do and then go get another patient. No one watches to see if the patient is doing the exercises correctly. There seems to be little one on one care throughout the whole facility. I would not wish this place on my worst enemy. If I could give them less than 1 Star, I would.
