My Mother was a recent patient at Helmwood Rehab. She will be 89 in January she was there for rehab from a broken hip and arm..We were ask to bring a inhaler for her Asthma from home which we did. We reported in a progress meeting we did in fact bring it in there were two staff members present at that meeting. Two days later a Nurse had three aids come to her room and hold her down against her will and the Nurse went between her legs and took the extender to her inhaler which had no medication in it. They pined both arms against her wheel chair and left a bruise on her arm that was broke. Three women restrained. 88-89 year old woman for a inhaler extender. She was traumatized to say the least, she was afraid and felt un safe. If you have are you are thinking of taking a loved one to this facility please keep a close watch on them. This is against all Medicare and Kentucky State laws.
