He is diabetic and was given orange juice and regular jelly at breakfast. When I questioned this I was told this was his carbohydrates! I told the staff, as did Nick, the head of rehab, he kept leaning forward and would fall out of a chair. They put him in a chair and he fell out. I was told it was not their job to watch him. Overall, the food was disgusting, the room was nasty, the ‘skilled nursing’ he received was inadequate at best, and the nurses were rude and condescending. This is a substandard facility that needs to be closed.
My mother-in-law is now at Countryside Rehab & Healthcare Center. I would recommend them. She has been there for three weeks now. I chose it because it was close to my home, and the doctor that saw my mother-in-law in the hospital, that's one of the places where he practices. The overall experience has been very nice. It's like they're a family. It is very clean. The dining hall is always very cheery looking with either flowers on the table or something. It was decorated for the 4th of July. The staff are very friendly, very attentive, and very professional.
I would not recommend the facility. There isn't enough staff to the patients in their care. Press the call button and it's a minimum of 30-45 minutes before someone shows up. I witnessed a patient on the floor calling for help - no one came until I went to the room screaming for help. Leave messages for a return call to get updates on the care - no response. Most caregivers speak only Spanish and hard to communicate what is needed. Food is terrible - had to bring food in most days. My mother developed pneumonia while in facility - my mother and I had to keep insisting on help with her…

Cna on duty delayed my medication by not telling nurse I was requesting medication. After calling several numbers nurse showed up with medication and said she was busy. I called the main number and requested a supervisor and was told there was no supervisor was on duty.
My Mom was transferred to Countryside rehab from Mease hospital since we didn't have many choices under the Humana plan, after 10 days she was getting worse not better and when I inquired to get her back to the hospital the assigned Dr. Levine said she was getting all the care there that the hospital would give, by midnight that night they were having her transferred to Mease ER where she passed the next morning. We will always regret not getting her out of there and will have to live with that. There was 38 patients to one RN so her vitals were not monitored as should have been, the staff was inattentive to my Mom and disrespectful to the family. DO NOT SEND YOUR FAMILY MEMBER THERE!
Right now, my father is in rehab at Countryside Rehab & Healthcare Center because he had an accident. The facility is very clean, and they're very diligent with the medications. Anything that you have, they would explain it to you. They've been good, so far. The staff is very respectful and very professional. The food is great and he likes it. The building is big and spacious, and it looks new. Maybe they should just get more personnel and more CNAs.
