My Mom resided here for over 5 years before her passing away, very early January this year. When I placed her in hospice I'm glad I didn't leave my Mothers bedside, because I had to remind the nurses when to give her medication, nearly every time it was due. Someren Glen needs to really do better in helping the family of their loved one that's passing. I don't feel it was my place to remind the nurses all night long that my mom needed morphine, so that she stayed as comfortable as possible passing away. Ms nursing manager referred to it as "team work" wrong answer ma'am. There was absolutely no room for myself and my sister to coordinate any sort of comfortable sleeping arrangements in my moms room, while she passed and it took three long nights. Someren Glen needs to figure out a better way to accommodate an already tough situation for a family to help transition their loved one, my suggestion is a private room for the family, which is a true serene hospice setting. My mom deserved that! This experience was definitely not a good one for our family at all. I'm hoping you all evaluate this situation, and remedy it for families in the future. Just to add, this facility acted as though our family was a bother but we felt we had every right to stay at my Mothers bedside until she transitioned. The nursing manager actually told us that after an entire day of having family there, we were now going to be restricted to how many visitors. My Mom as I was always told was not a bothersome to this facility or the staff so I'm puzzled why they'd treat her and the family as such in her last days. For what you all charge for people to stay here, the quality definitely isn't where it was when my Mom came here five years ago. I'm still wondering how she even ended up with pneumonia, other than the obvious, germs are spread from one person to another by NOT washing hands! Wake up someren Glen these are people with dementia you're charging thousands of dollars a month for families loved ones to live here, we trust you to take care of them but are you and did you really do this? I really question my Moms care now after staying overnight with her as she passed away. I'm hoping the appropriate staff see this review also because I'm really disappointed and didn't think I'd ever dislike the care my Mom got here. You all really need to do better and coordinate with hospice, I do know that. Nurse Dorothy your nasty attitude and unprofessional demeanor you presented just because you were called out even by hospice for not giving my mom the medication to keep the gurgling down in her lungs as she passed away. Then my moms name outside her door suddenly disappeared shortly afterwards? Excuse me ma'am but this is childish and definitely not professional and very disrespectful towards a dying resident. And Laura ms nursing manager you seriously lack people skills. I have no clue who actually said you fit the job description, but you need to first find compassion then figure out how to be professional as well as not defending an out of control temper tantrum nurse named Dorothy.....S/O to Erin, I have no problems with her, never have. She genuinely loved my mom and always was there to help me if I needed anything. When I couldn't get anyone to answer the phone on evergreen suite, you were ready and willing to help me, or even find the correct person and put them in contact with me. I appreciate that, Thank you Erin! You proved to me you truly cared about my dear mom many times over, even when she was passing away, then again afterwards when you consoled me, thank you!! You were definitely the bright shining star, too bad some of the others don't have your heart. read more
