My mother was a resident of Colonial Gardens February 2025 until September 2026. It started out great. But, after several visits to the ER for fall; refactoring her wrist and stitches. The final trip was a week in hospital due to UTI. After the visit to hospital to receive stitches I went to check on her the next day, I found her with her injury still covered in blood, laying in a urine filled bed. After, I completely lost it with staff I thought I was leaving her in good hand and we had an understanding. However, my sister went the next day to find her bed unmade so mattress would dry, dirty depends in floor, blood stains on bathroom counter and still head unclean. For the money you pay for care there, the staff is untrained and there in no licensed nursing staff to administer medication and handle emergencies. I ask to speak with person in charge since it was a weekend and nobody knew who that was. When my mother was released from hospital due to the UTI she had to go to for rehab due to weakness. We found out our mother had been over medicated which explains her falls. Also, her needed care had progressed to Long Term Care. So after 7 months under Colonial Gardens care she does not walk or have any desire to walk. I ask the director which we met with several times for an incident report and never received. Im sure you wonder why I did not press charges, it would not matter they know how to CYA. I will close with letting anyone considering placing a love one in Colonial Gardens DON'T.
