My uncle has been there 2 days now. I'm not impressed at all. The ONLY reason he's in this particular facility is because it's near me, he has a friend who resides here and he's Only here temporarily for physical therapy. I've never seen a facility with conjoining bathrooms, 1 dresser for 2 residents to share. The nurse and 1 of the aides were very rude and nasty to me. I was wearing shrubs so they assumed I was on staff rather than a family member But that doesn't excuse rude behavior. When the nurse realized I was in fact a family member, she apologized But the damage was done as I'd already witnessed her unprofessional behavior. She also left the used insulin syringe on his bed side table and was asked to remove it. However, the aide Linda was very nice, caring and hard working. And the aides who picked up his tray and brought ice were very nice. I'm a nurse myself, have worked in many facilities. I witnessed a kitchen staff member have her young daughter serving dinner trays, which she nearly spilled the entire tray on my uncle because it was too heavy for a small child to be carrying. There is nothing colorful or special in the presentation or flavor of the food. The hot plates and coverings are old and battered. The staff is very loud in the hallways conversing with one another. And the housekeeping is subpar at best, his bed side table has been greasy with food stuck on it, and food smashed into the floor from lunch. I am counting down the days til he can get out of here. He won't be back again.
