These people work real hard and care about those they care for. I do not worry about my loved one and it is a blessing to have this group of care givers in our lives. Seven months in and they still work as hard as the first day we arrived. I can go to work and know my loved one is taken care of.

Run for the hills!!!!The facility has roaches everywhere. Wait hours for clean towels to bathe residents. No consistency in staff. Different contract staff everyday. I was charting on the computer but had to go down the hall, I come back and a cna logged me out!!! She said she always chart on that particular computer! Cna's run the nurse' stations. DON did nothing.

My grandfather was transferred to George Regional Health and Rehab after suffering a bad fall that caused brain bleeds. While under the care of the facility he had another fall. We were not informed of the fall until my aunt noticed a bandage on his arm the next day. My aunt demanded him be taken to the ER where they found that his brain bleed was worsened by the fall. He had to be transferred to mobile infirmary. During this time we were also informed that he had been taken off of medications he had been on for 20+ years without consulting his neurologist that he sees for his Parkinson’s disease or his cardiologist. My aunt, who has power of attorney over him, was not informed of him being taken off either. If my aunt wouldn’t have noticed his arm he could have died. Please beware before you have a loved one admitted here.
