Zero stars. They had my mom for 5 days and never gave her meds, or put her on her breathing machine. This was a great nursing home until slumlords bought it 6 months ago. It was highly recommended, higly regarded facility, it isn't now. Look up the people that bought it. Do not let your loved one come here for any reason.

I moved my mom in with the old administration there. 3 months after it got sold which was 5 months ago it has went to shit. There is just way to much to post but do not choose this place for anyone.<br><br>Update. My mom was taken from this dump to Mercy. They doctor is surprised she is still alive . Then he said she probably won’t leave the hospital. That is how bad she is from this dump.

Update:<br>We did meet with the new owners last week. Residents and family mostly complained. Most of the existing staff has left (now just all agency employees who don't introduce themselves, everything is just a one-off transaction and so on). The residents who have been here a while are HURTING, and no one cares. The 3rd administrator in a year was suddenly fired and replaced by the woman who was hired as the social worker, as we hadn't had a social worker in months. About 40% of the full-time staff left and went to another facility.<br><br>However, the one employee who all the residents LOVE and RAVED about to the new owners, Kathleen, the Activities Director, was fired and will not be back. My loved one just called me crying. She hates it there, but has run out of $$ to get into a another cash-first home. Her only option is to go on a Medicaid facility wait-list.<br><br>My loved one also had to have 18 months of fees (over $12,000/mo) in order to be admitted before rolling onto Medicaid. They are now allowing straight-to-Medicaid, and it's significantly starting to change the vibe of the place.<br><br>We are sick to our stomachs about all the unnecessary changes. I've had to ask multiple times for correct diapering supplies, my mom couldn't get showered until late at night this week b/c they didn't have any clean towels, and the doorbell camera has not worked since the new owners took over. I listened to other loved ones cry at family meetings about how their husband who had suffered a stroke had been left in bed all day, another told about how her loved one still hadn't had anything to eat at 2pm one day b/c the staff clearly doesn't know how to interact with memory patients. Everyone is just sick to their stomachs and don't know what to do. I guess their goal is to become another crappy Medicaid facility.<br><br>One night l last week, my mom's wing's nurse was also covering the upstairs, and we couldn't reach the nurse for hours.<br><br>ORIGINAL REVIEW:<br>Not sure what is going on with the new ownership out of California, but things are getting worse instead of better. All the staff has left, every aide and nurse are once again from an agency, which means no one knows your loved one, and its a new face every day, every shift.<br><br>In the past 1.5 years, we have been through 2 administrators and 3 directors of nursing.

I did feel things were starting to improve with him, but now we start over.<br><br>There is currently no administrator and no social worker. I need to start working on my mom’s Medicaid paperwork and there is no one to help with anything. The staff has had at least 2 paychecks bounce since the new ownership. Do better!

By March, my mom will have gone through every single penny to her name. We are definitely not receiving $12k worth of service and care. We are missing $400 worth of pants that have gone missing (they put clothes away in the wrong rooms all the time, and the residents families do not go through their loved ones’ closets as i do, pulling out other residents clothes), and I have to continuously supply all of my mom’s incontinence supplies, bc she never had the proper supplies in her room.<br><br>Shout out to the Activities Ladies - they are amazing and one of the only good things about this place.
