They asked me to send a review because they didn't know where to send it lol. Thank you Care one for having such caring staff and amazing Nurses and therapists.

If I could give this facility negative stars, I would. In mid‑March, my mother fell and broke both…read moreof her tibias. I live in North Carolina and wanted her in the best rehab possible. The hospital told me this was the highest‑rated option, and I pushed hard to get her admitted. It is now one of my biggest regrets. From the moment she arrived, I received constant calls -- sometimes every hour -- of her crying hysterically. On her very first day, she called because she had accidentally used the bathroom on herself. With two broken legs, she couldn't get up and didn't even realize it had happened. Instead of helping her, the nurse aide yelled at her and accused her of doing it on purpose. Her roommate confirmed this. I reported it to management, and nothing was done. Soon after, she was placed on a bedpan and left sitting in her own waste for an hour. When I called the front desk to get someone to help her, staff went into her room only to tell her it "hadn't been an hour" and that she "needed a watch" if she wanted to tell time correctly. Again, her roommate confirmed this happened. Another incident: while changing my mother, a nurse pulled on the blanket so hard that she fell onto my mother's roommate. Later, when my mother politely said, "Please be careful, I don't want you to fall," that same nurse claimed she no longer felt "safe" around my mother and refused to care for her at all. I eventually drove 15 hours across the country to see my mother and scheduled a meeting with the case worker/social worker, PT, OT, and nursing staff. By the time I arrived, she had been there two weeks -- and had not received a single bath or shower. During the meeting, the case worker refused to look up from her computer, claiming she was "typing notes," though she was clearly just scrolling. Every concern we raised was dismissed. When I explained that staff were refusing to help my mother, I was told, "Well, she made the nurse uncomfortable." Apparently saying "Please be careful" is now grounds for withholding care. I asked why my mother had a Foley catheter. They said, "She wanted it." Since when is a patient's casual request enough to insert a catheter with no medical basis? I pointed out multiple errors in her chart -- including listing her as stage 4 kidney disease when she is stage 3, and failing to note her stage 4 liver failure. I was told I "misread it." I raised concerns about her worsening tremors and stutter and was told, "Oh, that's her medications, we'll just lower the dose." I also emphasized that I am her next of kin and healthcare POA, yet I had received zero communication. Even after I left, she stayed another month without a single update from staff. In the month and a half she was there, she received one bath. One. She repeatedly told staff that her incision didn't look right and that something felt like it was poking out of her left leg. She was ignored. We later learned that a screw in her leg is literally coming out -- and her incision sites are infected. On multiple occasions, I was on the phone with her when staff brought medications. She would ask if her pain medication was included, and they would say yes. She would check, and it wasn't. When she pointed it out, they would respond, "Oh, I need to see when you last had it." Shouldn't that be checked before handing out medications? My mother was repeatedly spoken to as if she were stupid. I had to remind them that she has worked in healthcare for over 30 years. Every time I filed a grievance, her treatment got slightly worse. Yet when I was physically present, staff tried to paint her as the problem. I know my mother -- she can be a handful -- but when multiple patients report the same issues, there is only one common denominator, and it is not her. I would not trust this facility to care for my sick dog, let alone my mother. I will never allow her to return here.
