Place smells bad of pee The nurses will leave someone covered in pee for hours The hallways are strong enough to make you gag If you need help hit your button an hour before you know you need help or itll never come Nurses are incredibly rude at times They ignore call lights one hallway had 4 lights on for over 30 minutes with no nurses or aids If aids are busy nurses wont help other then Stephanie. They are rude and nasty if you are able to talk and are responsive Food is miserable and they water down your drinks to make them last longer. They dont give showers other then wiping you down with disposable wash cloths Hair washing isn't a thing make sure to bring dry shampoo They do have a barber with the newest hair styles from the 1950s Therapy is incredible they are very attentive. Occupational, speech and physical therapy are the best we've seen from several rehab centers over the years. They are the only reason to stay here. One of the nurses was helping my mom then she hurt my mom and my mom asked her to do it a different way then the nurse said "I just cant do this" and stormed out They left her on the bed pan for 30 minutes which can develop bed sores I sat with her for over an hour today waiting on her nurse to help her get in bed and on the bed pan apparently her nurse went on her lunch break after saying " ill be right in" pressed button around 1:05 pm she just came in at 2:14 She got in here on august 12th and she just got her first bath today on August 29th Shes been on the 6 o'clock wake up for therapy and they havent been doing it because they forget or "forgot to put her on the morning list" She asked to talk to a manager and when she did she explained everything the manager said she was gonna talk to the staff about it. Now the nurses are treating her harshly and ignoring her more. Nurse came in here after pushing button and she sighed and she was wearing ear buds and talking on the phone the whole time her name was LaKeena this was on Friday aug 29th at night time I urge you please do not let your loved ones come live or stay in this place Good aids ( Rainy, Alyssa, Summer, Alona) (stephanie is best nurse there) They never taught her how to pivot or get in a car Once it was time to leave they never tried showing her how to do stuff she will need to do at home Dryer put burn holes in clothes and bed sheets Several things disappeared from her room over her stay. I got her a nice lotion it got taken, 3 pairs of glasses disappeared, a bra, and 2 pairs of pj's. After insurance stopped paying they told her it would be $450 a day.

Mom had a great short term rehab stay at Pine Meadows. Therapy gave it their all to make sure she was ready to go to her new assisted living apartment. Everyone was so kind. Her private room made it more appealing to give rehab a go to get her strength back after a hospital stay. Thanks Pine Meadows!!!
