First time ever going to GCC. Took a bit of time checking in, but was ok. The desk was easy to find and talked with the nurse who was very, very nice. The place was well lit. Looked very clean. No smells. I was pleased.

First time in, the place was clean and the staff was helpful plus very knowledgeable about our patient and it was less than 24 hours in the building.

My mother in law received excellent care here. The nursing staff, CNAs, and the therapy team were compassionate, attentive, and professional. We are very grateful for everything they did for her. The only area that could use some improvement is the overall cleanliness of the facility. Otherwise, we had a positive experience and appreciate the care she received.

Gulfport care center was amazing when I first took my mom there and dropped her off however she didn’t need a lot of assistance or help at the time. However, when things took a turn for the worse with her health, unfortunately she was neglected and it ended up in her death, so you all may need to think once or twice if you want your loved one to come here because they will be neglected and they will die. This place should not even be open.

If I could give 0 stars I would. They make sure to drug their patients . My aunt didn’t know who I was and she kept saying she was confused. She sounded so helpless . She is finally getting moved out of that nursing home .
