NIKIA “NIKI” GIST
Jun 2026
I chose Westminster Bradenton for my mom's rehab after a brief hospital stay. There were many issues during her stay from her being given the wrong medication, not receiving her prescribed medications and the nurse arguing with her about it, them running out of food and food being shared amongst patients, the NP, Kim physically removing the oxygen from my mom's nose without permission, to her being discharged within 24hrs of being diagnosed with pneumonia and heart failure by the NP, Kim. As a medical professional this is unacceptable. My mom was discharged with close to 30lbs of fluid on her body. She could not walk! She was in rehab so that she could get stronger and walk. No one reported the physical change in her body, even though they were helping her shower and helping her get dressed daily. She was admitted into the hospital within 48hrs of discharge after being seen by three physicians. There's a huge difference in their rehab center and assisted living. I would not recommend rehab for anyone.
