The staff is slow I waited 20 minutes 45 minutes for someone to answer my bail they don't have enough nursing I pushed my bill at 5:00 in the morning to be changed I did not get a response from 10:00 Atlanta supervisor know how long it takes City believe me she standing in my room and I press the button and she saw how long it takes there's only one good thing about this place they have the prettiest nurses I've seen in a long time other now this place is garbage 🗑️ the food is garbage the service is garbage 🗑️🗑️ this is my opinion only I was there for 7 days worst day of my life they got me on for 20 minutes a rehab they don't do rehab over the weekend baby having four times

Based on the so-called 5-star review from Medicare and US News & World, I selected this facility for myself when I needed support recovering from surgery. Even before I arrived, as I waited in the hospital, the center showed issues by not returning phone calls made by my case manager. Four days elapsed before they responded. Don't believe the false promises made on their website, such as "Prior to admission, one of our admissions staff will reach out with a phone call to give you a brief explanation of what will happen upon arrival. They will also set up a time to have an initial meeting." Neither that call nor that meeting ever occurred. I gave it a week. The staff that I met and who took actual care of me were industrious and gracious, despite being overworked and (probably) underpaid. However, the services that I expected, such as extensive PT to improve my physical strength and flexibility, and the promised OT sessions, including learning how to get in and out of a car and learning how to use a tub bench, never happened. The meals were occasionally meager (one slice of plain bread and half an egg), sometimes tasty, and never included fresh fruit or vegetables. Part of recovering from anything should involve healthy nutrition that is based on fresh food. But I'm sure the industrial-sized cans of whatever are significantly cheaper. The incessant beeping of unanswered calls and the screaming/yelling of a woman parked in the hallway most days made for a disturbing and challenging environment in which to try and rest and heal. Without notifying me or asking my permission, the staff changed the days, times, and locations of scheduled doctor appointments. Imagine my surprise when I decided to double-check the status of appointments. Early on, I slipped in a puddle at the base of the toilet shared by two rooms (4 patients). My right foot (non-weight-bearing foot in a splint) slammed down on floor and my back slammed into a grab bar. Staff said that the puddle/leak had been previously reported to maintenance. Maintenance stated that the toilet was fine. Every day for the remainder of my stay, the floor was wet and a towel was required to mop it up. When I informed PT that I was having chronic back spasms and pain after the fall in the bathroom, the staff said that they would provide some sort of back support. I asked about the back support again the next day. The back support was never provided. The understaffing presents definite challenges for both patients and staff. When you are non-weight-bearing and you rely on staff to obtain medication or use the bathroom, you must be prepared to request medication several times, because they will forget and you will suffer. To avoid developing a UTI and being forced to foul my clothing, I learned early on to request access to the bathroom before I seriously needed it. It might easily be 30 minutes before anyone's available to assist you in getting to the toilet. The requirements that they were supposed to fulfill, such as ordering a walker and restarting my in-home PT and OT, failed to materialize. I made several visits to their office before I discharged myself to make sure that they had placed orders. I don't know if they were lying to get rid of me or just because it's standard behavior. After I discharged myself, I expected the walker to arrive at my home and the home-health care to resume. For the next 10 days, I called repeatedly to ask what the status was. No one responded. My case manager from my insurance company also called, and they failed to respond to those calls as well.

I would not recommend this place. We were unable to tour the place before going or we never would have picked this place for my father. When my family arrived, we were brought to my dad's room where he was sharing with another individual. The bedding was stained. In the bathroom that was shared with multiple individuals was unsanitary. It had brown-stained towels wrapped around the base of the toilet and smelled strongly of urine. My father was also told that he needed to relinquish his electric wheelchair and would be given one of theirs. He's informed they would "try" to find one with neck support, but could not promise one would be available. He absolutely must have neck support at all times and a standard wheelchair would not have been able to provide him the support he needed. He also does not have the strength or mobile to be able to push himself in case of an emergency. If something were to happen he would have been trapped. He was there from around 3pm to 8am the next day and at no point did any staff come to the room to check on him and see if his needs were being met. The only staff interaction happened in the middle of the night when he called to have his roommate turn off his TV and was told his roommate could watch TV at full volume all night if he wanted to, which he did ensuring he got no sleep that night. I came the next morning to remove him from the situation. Upon check out they lost some of his multiple RX medications that were later found and had to be mailed back to him. Essential RX medications should never have been lost in the first place which only added to the stress of the experience. This sad facility overall was not a place we believe any veteran should be subjected to.

It is virtually impossible to reach a loved one by phone since the calls get routed through the nurses station, and no one ever answers the phone!<br><br>Upon visiting, however, the staff are all very friendly and the patients seem well taken care of.
