I come once a week at least and I am always pleased with everything and everyone
My father stayed here for about a month and man do they just not care about anybody here. Let me be real here, nighttime staff is 2-3 people for a facility of 50 plus beds. My father had his Memory issues and sometimes acted out just like any Dementia patient, he stayed at a SNF prior to living here for 3 months and I had 0 complaints from them.
When I did a tour here prior to moving my father in I was introduced to Michelle, my girlfriend and I were shown a nice room with a MASSIVE closet mirror, right there I knew that was a red flag because my father would talk to himself in the mirror. My girlfriend and I both told Michelle how it would be a bad idea because of the mirrors in his room, she said to not worry and that they will change them out by the time my father moves in. Long story short they did not change it out, my father freaks out talking to himself, and I get pressed by Ann-Marie the Head Nurse because I supposedly “did not tell anybody about the mirror issue”. Gotcha, so Michelle forgot to communicate that.
A couple times I got a call from Astoria informing me that he was acting out a bit and that maybe changing up his medication would be a good option, I agreed on it as well as the “at facility” Psychologist. But to tell me that you are going to change his medication up and 3 WEEKS LATER at a Hospital I find out that the medication was put in the system but was never actually administer to him.. How could you just do that to somebody? Also, my father ended up being re-evaluated at a hospital (for 2 weeks) and stayed at a SNF for a month and a half, this facility still had the audacity to charge me his months rent? Have to pay his rent somewhere even though he’s currently at a Skilled Nursing Facility? Crazy. “its in the written agreement”
At the end of the day, everybody’s experience is different.
This facility is very friendly and accommodating to their residents.
