Let's start with the Terrible administration, doesnt report abuse to keep the state out of the building. Don has inappropriate photos on Facebook. Residents are easily able to bring in drugs. Psych residents lives on the geriatric floors with resident who are unable to defend themselves. Hr is mean and suffering from the affects of an abusive relationship, takes it out on staff. Staffing is terrible, agency is taking over the building quality of care is failing. No drug and alcohol treatment for ex addicts. Sex education is non existent, no protection given to active residents. I know all facilities have issues. But the drug problem in the building is obscene. Many residents are often high as a kite. I don't know what my options are. I have proof of all that im saying. The rodents and roaches is beyond control. The kitchen staff Is unsanitary and rude. Most staff can't even perform basic cpr. The administrator woos the state employees with meals when they come in for complaints to sway the outcome. I have pics and willing to post. My name is Nicole t.

TLDR; Highly Advisable to search elsewhere. I was advised there was a bed ready for my father, but upon arrival they were painting the room. There was an intention to put my father in a freshly painted room where the windows open up very minimally. At that time, I was told there was a temporary room available for him. The pictures are of that room and their state upon arrival. Deplorable conditions, even for an animal. It felt more like a homeless shelter than a place to heal. Only one elevator works, making travel extremely time consuming as it passes your level or it just opens up without traveling anywhere. The entire floor smelled like urine. Definitely not isolated to one room, it was the entire floor. These people definitely are not getting the help they need, and it’s truly heartbreaking. The assistant administrator did his absolute best to alleviate the situation. Very pleasant individual who articulated that it was the hospitals decision to commit to transportation at a premature time. Good intentions, but executed outrageously terrible. Take care and I hope you find the care you need, this won’t cut it. No, I will not contact your administration to discuss this matter at a later date. Parkshore Estates fails tremendously in the care of their patients. Please do better.
