My aunt is staying there while her house is getting prepared for her to come home. Her biggest complaint is being left in her soiled Depends.

I was an ALS patient at St John's Place this past week. St. John's Place is likely good for memory care from Dementia and Alzheimer's but in no way is this facility knowledgeable or equipped to deal with ALS. Almost everyday I was put in a Jerry Chair (Torture Chair) where I would have to support my body with my feet. ALS starts in the distal regions first. At night I couldn't sleep because of the pain. I also had diarrhea (c diff) and was left in the Torture Chair for almost 12 hours on Saturday because no one wanted to change me. In my personal opinion, this place is awful: 1. Didn't give me my medications. 2. Took my phone and pocket book without telling me. 3. Didn't treat me for my C Diff and didn't let me call out for help. 4. Accused me of lying about my diarrhea?!!! I have C Diff. 5. Kept me in the Torture Chair for HOURS

HORRIBLE keep your family away from this place my mom visited for respite care total mistake on my part due to the place not being clean and no STAFF present when I toured with Shannon in admissions she showed me a nicely upkept version of a wing they supposedly used for COVID but assured me that all their rooms were similar TOTAL LIE !!!!!! when we got her there nothing was in place to welcome my mom Shannon also told me she would be there to greet us and the only person in the building was the DON! We left on a Thursday and returned on Sunday she had the same G-tube dressing from Thursday still on her but with stains from her feeding. She also had a T-shirt missing and they were purposely avoiding me over just SAD!!!! So when placing a loved one in the care of others just please take time to look into the facility. I’m fortunate my mom is able to live with me and I understand everyone’s situation is not the same my every moment when I left her at St Johns Place I was thinking of if shes getting the proper care so I had people going to check on her jus to make sure. I jus that’s what $210 dollars a day gets you😡 They also refused to give her a shower😡😡😡
