    Neglectful abusive care despite cleanliness

    The facility looked nice and clean, but my experience was awful. Care was terrible - I witnessed untreated bedsores leading to bone infection, extreme malnutrition, and missed nighttime medications; caregivers left residents unsupervised and staff verbally abused people. Management was unfriendly and residents were forced to eat outside regardless of weather. I do not recommend.

    Summary review

    Overall sentiment: The reviews paint a strongly negative picture of care and management at Deanna Adult Family Care Home, with multiple reports indicating serious neglect and abuse concerns. While one comment notes that the facility is "nice, clean," the remainder of the feedback focuses on systemic problems with staff behavior, medical oversight, supervision, and dining practices. The dominant tone across the summaries is urgent caution — reviewers express distrust and advise against placing loved ones at this facility.

    Care quality and medical issues: Several reviews allege severe failures in medical care. Reported problems include missed nighttime medications and untreated bedsores that reportedly progressed to serious infections (including reports of infection reaching bone). In addition, there are claims of extreme malnutrition and severe weight loss among residents. These issues point to both inadequate monitoring of residents' physical health and failures to respond appropriately when clinical problems arise. The combination of missed medications, untreated skin breakdown, and malnutrition indicates a pattern of neglect with potentially serious health consequences.

    Staff behavior and supervision: Reviews specifically call out staff conduct and supervision lapses. Incidents of verbal abuse by staff are mentioned, as is unfriendly or unsupportive management. Caregivers allegedly left residents unsupervised, creating safety risks. These reports suggest problems with staff training, oversight, workplace culture, or staffing levels — any of which can degrade resident safety and dignity. The allegations of verbal abuse and abandonment are particularly concerning because they affect both emotional well-being and physical safety.

    Facilities, dining, and policies: On the physical environment, the single positive note is that the location is described as "nice, clean." However, dining practices raised concerns: reviewers report that residents were forced to eat outside regardless of weather. That practice raises questions about resident autonomy, comfort, and the facility's policies for accommodating mobility or medical limitations. A clean building does not appear to translate into appropriate caregiving or respectful, person-centered routines.

    Management and overall patterns: Management is described as unfriendly, and reviewers explicitly advise against the facility. The pattern across the summaries is consistent with inadequate clinical oversight, poor staff-resident interactions, and operational decisions that compromise resident well-being (for example, making residents eat outdoors regardless of conditions). These recurring themes — medication errors or omissions, untreated wounds, malnutrition, lack of supervision, and abusive behavior — represent serious regulatory and safety concerns.

    Conclusion and caution: In sum, although the facility is reported to be clean, the substantive and repeated allegations of neglect, medical mismanagement, abusive staff behavior, unsupervised residents, and harmful policies outweigh that single positive note. Prospective residents and their families should treat these reviews as red flags: verify licensing and inspection records, request detailed information on staffing ratios and training, seek documentation of medication administration and wound care protocols, and consider visiting unannounced to observe day-to-day care. Given the severity of the reported issues, these reviews collectively amount to a strong recommendation to proceed with extreme caution or to consider alternative care options.

    About Deanna Adult Family Care Home

    Deanna Adult Family Care Home, located in Tampa, FL, is a small, licensed adult family care home with just 5 beds, which really means you'll get a close-knit, quiet community where staff know each resident by name and can pay personal attention to daily needs, whether that's help with getting dressed, eating, taking medicine, or even just making sure everyone feels comfortable and safe. The place offers assisted living for seniors, with help for meals, housekeeping, laundry, personal care, and medication management. There's a big focus on memory care for folks living with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia, so they've got the building secured, and they've arranged both indoor and outdoor common areas that are easy for people to get around, plus there's a structured program full of memory games, brain activities, and social events like birthday parties, picnics, and even off-site trips for those who like to get out for a bit. When someone only needs short-term care to give family caregivers a break, they do respite stays, and residents get home-cooked meals and snacks throughout the day, along with cable TV and air conditioning in their rooms. The whole place feels more like a home than a facility, and it's clean and quiet, with reviews mentioning a nice environment but also giving a 2.5-star rating, which means it's not perfect but there's always someone around making sure residents are safe and comfortable. Transportation and parking are available, and while some transportation services are complimentary, others might have a small fee, so it's good to check directly with them about costs, especially since they do publish their prices online. Staff are trained for different health needs, from incontinence and diabetic care to high-acuity and non-ambulatory support, and residents have the choice between semi-private and ground-floor rooms. This place stays focused on letting people keep some independence, with activities to encourage friendships, along with attentive care for both day-to-day needs and memory concerns. The home has oversight, is licensed, and keeps a clear focus on family-style living, which gives peace of mind to families needing a safe, homey place for an older loved one.
