This place is a foul smelling mess! You can tell they’re not properly taking care of their patients. When families complain about their loved one’s care, all they want to do is terminate their stay and push the patient out. When I visit my loved one, I’m always finding her in soiled linen. When I asked the nurses assigned to the rooms to change the soiled linen, they got upset with me. DO NOT ADMIT YOUR LOVED ONES IN THIS FACILITY! SHUT THEM DOWN!

HORRIBLE FACILITY!!! The building smells horrible, furniture in the rooms (bed, dressers/closets, bathroom) are ran down / beat up BAD. The aides are never around to help , they are very rude & ruff when they do decide to help. They never track anything (falls, vitals, physical therapy, when someone is bathed or when they’ve eaten etc) A family member of mine was discharged & all of her belongings (iPad, clothes, chargers etc) were “missing” aka STOLEN by someone in the building. They are now giving us the run around & saying they can’t do anything about it. Do not send your family members there !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love working with Battlefield to best serve the community. Every time we utilize the building for long term or respite the staff is easy to work with, communicativate, and genuinely cares for the patients. I love that they have a plethora of activies and deep rooted friendships between patients and staff. I will continue to promote and partner with Battlefield.

My mother was a cancer patient at VCU. She was sent here to undergo physical rehabilitation. While here, they neglected her needs, the head nurse told the staff my mother was a drug addict, and they confiscated all her medications (including painkillers for cancer). I contacted her healthcare team at VCU and they notified the State of Virginia. Later on she would develop septic bed sores that ultimately contributed to her losing the battle with cancer. During my brief visit I couldn't help but notice that the place reeked of urine, and the plumbing did not work. This place is disgusting, and so are the people. My mother was yelled at for leaving under AMA 'against medical advice' while I was present (it was me who was taking her out of there). If there is an afterlife, there's also a special place in Hell for the people that run this place. Do not under any circumstances send your loved ones here. This is not a place people go to be taken care of, this is essentially a place where people go to be forgotten.
