This place is horrible. The staff are terrible to the residents and don’t really care for their well being, they are all drama filled including the head of the company. The staff is rude and disrespectful to each other and it shouldn’t be tolerated. This place needs shut down immediately!

They have no hot water no linen. The residents don’t get showers. The bathrooms are disgusting. The housekeeping is run by someone who is never there and always smells like marijuana. All the residents and staff complain to the Administrator and she does nothing. Some staff are abusive to the residents and nothing happens. The food is barely edible. This place needs to be shut down. Residents have state on speed dial.

Lewis and Clark Gardens Nursing Facility is what gives Nursing homes a bad name. 90 % of the staff was good but the food was normally served cold! I was sent there for Rehab. The contracted Physical Therapists was great but the OT therapy was 50/50. As for safety, the OT therapist allowed me to fall after I told her I was getting weak. Not able to get out of bed alone, bed changing was scary, being a small bed and a big guy the aids understood the dilemma of being rolled towards the floor side in a small bed with no side rails this is why one side was pushed to the wall. The smells of urine could over take your breath and the noise from others from their personal TVs being allowed to be at full volume 24/7 was totally untolerable. Once my insurance stopped paying for therapy I was out of that Hell Hole as fast as I could arrange transportation.
