If I could give it a -1 I would. Why Baptist Kendall would even recommend this place, Select Specialty of Miami Lakes @ 14001 NW 82ND AVE is a mystery. They promised the proxy to wean the patient off the trach and that the patient would receive therapy so that the patient would be transferred there from Baptist Kendall, Miami.
The patient was immobile and recovering from a ruptured aneurysm. Instead of weaning him off the trach and provided much needed therapy, the staff constantly over-medicated him with a FDA non-certified anti-psychotic drug to keep him asleep 24/7 against the families wishes, this can be considered ELDER/ADULT Abuse. Since he was medicated 24/7 he was unresponsive, and unable to receive any much needed therapy. He developed 2 lung infections there. The Doctors are never there, if they exist at all?
In the 2 months I was accompanying the patient before the proxy finally was convinced to move him, the nurses left the patient without his meals, & medicated him, they would not perform ANY therapy, they would write up mis-diagnosis to the insurance.
In December 2023, after almost to 2 months of elder abuse we had a health scare & we had to sign out the patient A.M.A because the office manager refused to call an ambulance to send the patient to an emergency room. We had to out-of-pocket the ambulance.
We moved the patient to another Rehab facility, where he is slowly recovering, progressing, speaking, trach removed & with therapy and actual care.
Unfortunately, He lost 2 valuable months at the Hell Health Hole that is slowly killing all its patients, dirty, unattentive with Doctors that are M.I.A. Yet they bill the insurance for services that one that was there everyday did NOT see. If you have a loved one this place is not what it appears. All they do is sedate the patient 24/7, therapy is next to null, and there is no communication to the family as to the patient's health or progress.
Select Specialty slowly is killing their patients and milking the insurance. DO NOT PLACE A LOVED ONE THERE. They should be closed down, honestly, it is an incubator of bacteria, misrepresentative of what they offer, and all they care about is collecting all they can from the insurance, scam the insurance until the patient dies or is transferred to another partner facility and they do not care about the patient's progress or recovery. Therefore, they DO NOT OFFER, quality healthcare, not at all. Stay away from this place! read more
