    Mixed care neglect tragic outcome

    I had a mixed, painful experience. Some staff were professional, caring, and the facility was very clean - my mom's pressure sores improved and a dermatologist provided excellent care - but she contracted C. diff, was frequently ignored, communication failed, equipment and hygiene issues (missing wheelchair footrests, unsafe responses to falls, soiled rooms) suggested neglect, and she died after a short stay; I cannot recommend this place for families.

    Summary review

    Overall sentiment in these review summaries is mixed and polarized: many families praise the staff and clinical care while others report serious safety, neglect, and infection-control problems. A substantial number of reviewers emphasize compassionate, professional, and knowledgeable caregivers who provide attentive rehabilitation and long-term care. Several first-hand accounts note measurable clinical improvements (for example, pressure sores improving from stage 4 to stage 2), a clean-smelling facility with no odor, and reassuring end-of-life experiences described as peaceful. Positive notes also include supportive custodial and nursing teams, directors who communicate well with families in some cases, and pride among staff in their work.

    Counterbalancing these positive experiences are multiple, very concerning negative themes that recur across reviews. Several reviews allege neglect and unresponsiveness by staff during critical events: lack of a doctor after a fall, residents left in unsafe positions (half falling out of beds), and staff not answering calls. There are specific reports of unsafe or poorly maintained equipment (e.g., wheelchairs missing footrests) and hygiene lapses as severe as bodily waste on walls. Infection and skin-problem reports appear repeatedly, including C. difficile (C-diff) infections and rashes that reviewers suspect may be linked to laundry detergent or other facility processes. Some families reported resident deaths during or soon after stays and described communication failures and concerns about the accuracy of records—one review even accuses the facility of fabricating or misrepresenting documentation. Multiple summaries mention regulatory scrutiny: Medicare and state health department (CDPH) investigations or reports are referenced, which heightens concern for families reviewing the facility.

    Staff and management perceptions are a key area of divergence. Many reviews highlight respectful, compassionate, and informative clinicians and administrators who offer confidence to families leaving loved ones in their care. There are specific compliments about being well informed about rehabilitation and long-term care plans, and several reviewers explicitly state they would recommend the facility. At the same time, other families report that the staff ignored calls, failed to communicate about incidents, or were incompetent in addressing basic clinical needs. These opposing experiences indicate variability in staff performance, possible inconsistencies between day and night shifts, or uneven training/oversight across teams.

    Facility and environmental impressions are similarly mixed. Multiple reviewers call the center
