    I was brought there by a group of criminal ruffians, who had just violently assaulted me. I had…read morebeen in my own car, pulling into a parking space in a private hotel lot, when several unknown cars sped towards my automobile. Their speed & direction frightened me. I drove my car forward to escape their pursuit, but I was unable to get away. After over 1/2 hour of being trapped in my car while they hit it with their vehicles and caused it to be totaled, I lost the battle to escape being carjacked. One of the men took a glass cutting tool and use it to cut & crack the driver side window. Then he reached in and unlocked the car and they dragged me out of the car. I thought I was going to die. They loaded me onto a stretcher, cranked me up a ramp into the back of the antiquated ambulance. The gurney was not affixed to the sides of the ambulance and there was no one in the back with me. So I was shifting and bumping around in the rear of the vehicle. I was driven to Parkview Care. I was in total shock. I found myself @ an unfamiliar place. I have no recollection of having my cell phone, my purse or anyone explaining to me what was happening. The gang passed me off to a pleasant young woman, who brought me inside. I was in shock and covered with glass. I can't remember if she was an RN, or a nurses' aide. I know no one undressed me or put me in a gown, but I was covered in shards of glass from the shattered window. There were sharp little pieces of glass sticking into my face, in my hair, in my clothing, in my underwear, in my shoes, pricking me everywhere. I was very cold, battered and bruised. The personnel were quiet, detached & uninformative. I have a vague recollection of being attached to the standard temperature and blood pressure devices which read out on the monitor. Hours passed, at some point a Physician Assistant came in and we spoke. I know I was cold, tired and very afraid. I prayed. I seemed to have no authority. No one asked me to sign any consent forms. Various random medical diagnostic test were ordered. No medical treatment was provided. After midnight my husband was contacted and he came and picked me up and took me to a local hotel. We eventually received an exorbitant ambulance, and hospital bill.

    I've been treated poorly by a nurse and two cna. They refused to help and they lie. It makes for…read morequite a day. Im sure they will kick me out for telling the truth.

    Wheatridge Care Center - March 27, 202 at Lutheran Hospital: full blown cellulitis from the sepsis which entered my body through the untreated, infected bug bites.

    After hip replacement surgery, I was an inpatient here for two weeks (March 7-21, 2024)--I did not…read morego anywhere else during this time. They rightly earn at least one star due to excellent PT and OT plus Bella (OT) and Bea (aide), bright lights who made my time there bearable. Wheatridge Manor missed a chance for a higher rating because they almost killed me with a wrong assessment and then a 10-hour delay of needed treatment on March 21. I had contracted strep A sepsis there (and went into kidney failure), necessitating ambulance transport from Wheatridge Manor to Lutheran Hospital ER where they fought for hours to save my life. Source of infection: untreated bug bites (about 3-19 at Wheatridge Manor) which became infected and then developed into a bad case of cellulitis. Additional details: from the time (around 4am) of my first physical symptoms on the morning of March 21 (pain, uncontrollable shaking, vomiting; a few hours later, expressive aphasia--inability to process language), the night nurse Pam and day nurse Jennifer wrongly assessed me as experiencing a panic attack due to "anxiety" about going home. Pam also chewed me out for taking time away from other patients who "really" needed her care (my friend witnessed that unpleasant exchange). I was in and out of awareness for the rest of that day. This terrified me (my symptoms as well as being ignored and dismissed by the nursing staff) as I knew something was very, very wrong. Needing support and a witness, I called my friend (retired nurse). She arrived at the facility around 5am and stayed with me all day. Finally, around 2pm, I asked her to phone my high school BFF in Houston who's a doctor. Dr friend had two words for us: "Ambulance now!" Wheatridge's day nurse, Jennifer, only made the phone call due to pressure from my witness. These two dear friends, along with Lutheran's ER and other medical personnel, saved my life. Accordingly, I do not recommend Wheatridge Manor for anyone. Yes, the PT and OT are great, but the rest of the facility lacks adequate, coordinated care. However, if that place seems the best placement for your loved one, be sure to check on them frequently and to advocate for their needs or they may either almost die like me, or actually die, from inadequate care.

    In a 2025 Update I hope they have s room for me again as I'll need a place to stay for 8 or 9 days…read moreafter my Hip Replacement Surgery as they will be able to make sure my MRSA does not flair up. I stopped in the other Day and was happy to see some of the same staff that really helped me during my last stay review below. I had left a GOOGLE review but thought they would appreciate this one. I was embarrassed a bit as I remembered one of my favorite staffers an OT's name as she really helped me relearn how to walk. I forgot the name of a lady that helped me every day face palm . I don't think she recognized me when I said hello , as she was nice it is OK it has been well over a year . I think I also recognized the lady at the desk but I don't remember her name being Jay lol on her tag. I dropped off some fun 3d trinkets and Chocolate for the staff (aha I trust she shared lol it is OK it was squirreled away , seriously the worlds best chocolate bar flown in from Dubai) as I was originally a scheduled for Surgery on the 13th to wind up there the 14th, then it was rescheduled and I figured I may need bribes lol and I'll be on my best behavior I promise. At any rate I would have spent more time but everyone was busy managing and helping everyone. I did get stuck temporarily in the elevator with a friendly nurse , we both thought is the elevator moving , happily the door opened and wound up singing in a stairwell to laughter from somewhere , a song for Sloans, great acoustics. Oh there are plenty of elevators as well , I'm laughing as I was probably pranked :) If I go back I'll definitely bring an acoustic guitar as the place is missing music. Inside joke I'm a legend in my own mind and the bingo was fun as well but their are Bingo sharks in there. I was recently published coauthored Inside NeXT available on eBay so yes I'll continue to write , so more entertaining than one would expect , Time Traveling an adventure from a guy immobilized in a bed surviving MRSA saved by angels, I had to relearn how to walk , crazy stuff oh my happens when portals open up at sloans , fiction and non fiction why be boring, , some all ages , some you find in the overly romantic book clubs meets cosmo lol some kept secret squirrel aha . It is/was always a fun mix of folks of all ages , staff is great some true gem personalities , yes names changed . I don't know if a handlebar mustache is a requirement with an old timey hat , ha but that would be kind of funny. Including the chef hat making the pasta. ## Original review I have been here 6 weeks and have made friends with a lot of the staff. They have been friendly , responsive and very helpful . I was thankful for them helping me learn to walk again and it has been a 2 1/2 month journey as I almost died from sepsis. I'm finally going home tomorrow. . The PT and OT staff are amazing . The food depends on the chef lol doesn't it always as it can be fantastic or not so much an alternative there is a great cafe in the lobby that makes an awesome burger $4.50 add fries 1.50 :) yes I would recommend Sloans Lake Rehabilitation center, incredible view of Downtown Denver and or the mountains and lake . My parents in their 80's found it convenient for practically daily visits as well. It is also kept clean and the staff in previous ratings no longer work here and management is not afraid to justly make personnel changes when justified . Overall everyone is on top of it and I have enjoyed my comfortable stay here. Best regards Rob Blessin President BHI

    The room is clean and the view is amazing. The physical and occupational therapy she received were…read moregreat too. My 87 year old mother-in-law went here with a broken arm and broken neck. She had on a neck brace, and an arm sling. The first day when the CNA came in to take her vitals, I asked him if he would be coming to help her go to the bathroom when she needed to go. He said he would just put her in a brief (diaper) until the next day when she would get evaluated. I told him he would NOT be doing that because she could walk to the bathroom but would need help with her pants. He said he would but she ended up going herself. The next day the CNA helped her into the bathroom but never came back to help her get her pants back up. The food was always cold. We told everyone she can't have beef. We even wrote it on her order form every day. Yet, she always got served beef. We also ordered finger foods because it's hard for her to eat with her neck brace on. They still sent her mashed potatoes and cut up meat with gravy. They didn't try to help her eat so she was always hungry when we got there.

My dad seemed to enjoy his short time there (he was a rehab patient, not a resident) as much as a 90 yr old dementia patient would. The main problem my siblings and I have with the center is their laundry practices/system. From what I can tell, resident's clothes are washed on an almost daily basis (that's a good thing!), with any and everyone's clothes washed together (understandable). Clothes are marked with names and/or room numbers but there is an issue of clothes getting back to the correct rooms. Items of my dad's clothes went missing on an almost daily basis as well as him wearing someone else's clothes because they were put in his room in error. He's not much for clothing details at this point. We were always on the hunt for who might have his "favorite" shirt on today. In the end, at discharge, I think we left with everything he started with. They do not check pants/shirt pockets and because of this my dad's fairly basic, new phone ended up getting washed and ruined and had to be replaced. Yes, he still has a phone as we like to talk to him whenever possible and he loves hearing from all of us. The center refused to reimburse the price of the new phone as, in part, with 60 residents, that's a lot of pockets to go through. If you only have one job (doing laundry), maybe a little more care/attention to detail should be taken. I'm sure in all the paperwork we signed at admission there's a disclaimer about entering at your own risk and them not being responsible for loss or damage to one's belongings and we'll definitely know better the next time we take him somewhere.
