My 92yo dad was sent there for rehab after a major surgery. Because he wanted to sit outside (that’s his favorite thing to do every day of his life) and they didn’t want him to, they moved him without consulting me - his POA - to memory care. They called me after the fact. The nurses treat those in memory care like they are never leaving - that’s not rehabbing or getting my dad to walk again. I went in one afternoon and he was in debilitating pain, clenching his chest. They treated him for indigestion….HE HAD MULTIPLE PULMONARY EMBOLISMS! They knew why he was there, yet not one single person had the brains to think this could be something other than heartburn? When I got the nurse in his room she was ridiculous. Ya, I yelled at her asking why the hell does this look like indigestion? He’s grasping his chest in pain and can’t even talk! Instead of looking at him and assessing, she went to get a supervisor because she didn’t like that I was yelling at her. They were too busy being lazy and getting butt hurt that I was yelling for my dad’s emergent care need. I ended up calling 911 for him to go to emergency room. Not a single nurse assessed him or considered calling 911. He told me he’d been like that since the night before! Had I not called 911, he’d be dead. DON’T EVER PUT YOUR LOVED ONE IN THEIR CARE. NEVER.

My mom has been in a few rehabs over the years. Seminary Village has been the one that has impressed me the most!! You can tell the therapists from Bounce Back, the nurses and CNA’s truly care about the patient! It’s very clean, the food is absolutely delicious! They have been great with communicating to me what’s been happening with my mom and keeping me in the loop of her rehabilitation.

Terrible facility! Even WORSE management!!!! I think they should take a look at who they have running the place and do some reevaluating. Don’t recommend this facility at all.
