Do not put your love one this place horrible place I gave a 1 star
Reagan Baker
Nov 2025
I have never left a bad review in my life but if I could give this negative reviews I would. Absolutely horrible place. I would not send my worst enemy here. My dad was here for less than a year & his health declined so rapidly due to the negligence & neglectfulness of this facility. He never got showered, changed or listened to at all. Nurses were always gossiping or sitting on their phones rather than helping him or us while trying to get their attention, which often took a while/a lot. My dad was not talking, eating, walking, and was very dizzy & lightheaded & weak etc. & worsening for days & they had the audacity to not only notify us, but when we noticed everyday that we went & asked them to check his vitals, they say that he was faking it for attention, and in front of him. We called squad ourselves & the hospital said was early septic, in afib for days, and had multiple small strokes. We sent him to a different nursing home after he spent two weeks in the hospital & he died less than 6 months later after having a horrible quality of life after their negligence. We never even got to take him out to eat again. & I blame them for his decline & death. They stole the last year of my dad’s life from him & us. We had a meeting with the board & all they could say was if we brought him back it wouldn’t happen again. An absolute joke.

★★★★★ From Rock Bottom to Redemption<br><br>Let me be real about The Respiratory & Nursing Center of Dayton. There was a time when this place was not somewhere you wanted your loved ones.

The facility has invested in itself, the vent and respiratory unit has been remodeled, and the culture has been flipped.
