Filthy and disgust, always smelled of urine in hall 4. Had live the dining area with my mother because the urine stench was overwhelming! My mother had a slight cough and was weak. Took 2 days for nurse to check her out. I called one day and was told she was doing great! Rolling around in her wheel chair. I ve observed the care and that s why I hardly ever missed a day visiting. One the day I called, I asked to speak to my mother. I was disconnected one time, called back and my mother couldn t speak to me! I got in my car and when I arrived they d given her cough syrup. She was obviously very ill so finally her temperature was taken. I ask for the nurse did one and said she had pneumonia, but she d been active and strong the day before but I ll the day before that???? They wanted to treat her there and there was no way! I asked her to go to Detar and the charge nurse at night was very rude to me. I told her she was going to DeTar. While cleaning her up because another hospital would see how filthy the residents are that can t groom themselves are, I talked to several aids and a nurse. They were very upset and both said there was no communication between shifts. I guess it makes things easier when they can use the excuse I didn t know! I ve heard it from them so many times! I suggested ways to communicate since the can t figure how to do it!
My mother died from pneumonia, it was a painful,agonizing death. It was a death that should not have happened. Guess it s one less patient they can ignore because that s what I saw on Hallway 4. Do as little as possible and always act like you don t know anything!
I ve lost my best friend and only relative. My mom always was smiling and always said please and thank you. I feel sorry for the residents that don t have someone checking in on them daily.
I put here in this facility because there were no openings in Victoria. I would not let my dog stay all night at that place! And the stealing that goes on, awful. Can t even go there.
I just want to go visit my mom more then anything in the world, but I can t, I can t ever see her and that s so wrong!!!
