    Neglect poor hygiene unsafe transfers

    I had a terrible experience. My mom was frequently neglected — long delayed care (often 2+ hours), inadequate peri-care and hygiene (family had to give a bed bath), staff failed to check on her, transfers happened without POA notification, and belongings went missing; I once found her on the floor naked with dried BM. A CNA brought a food tray while she needed care, and the admissions director was rude and untruthful about the facility’s capabilities; discharge felt unsafe. A few staff were respectful — the kitchen and activity managers were excellent — but overall I would not return or recommend.

    About Accura HealthCare of Creston

    Accura HealthCare of Creston sits in a community-based setting where people can get help with daily life if they need it, and over the years, many folks have come to depend on the place for short-stay rehab, skilled nursing, and long-term care, which covers a lot of needs as people age, and they do aim to make care plans fit each person, so no one gets a one-size-fits-all approach because everyone's situation is a little different. They've got staff around the clock for nursing care, and that includes help with things like medical support, therapy, psychological services, good meals, and even spiritual support for those who want it-those sorts of services are there for both short- and long-term stays, with therapists helping people get back on their feet if they're rehabbing from an illness or injury, or just needing to keep strong into their later years, offering physical, occupational, and speech therapy as well as balance exercises, mobility training, posture correction, and other things that help people feel steady and safe. They also deal with home evaluations and safety awareness, so if someone might want to go back home but isn't sure if it's safe, staff can help with that, too. For those reaching the end of life or facing serious, long-term illness, there's hospice care aimed at comfort and pain relief, along with emotional support. There's also respite care so caregivers can get a break while their loved one is in good hands, with stays as short as just a few days up to a couple of weeks. The activities there aren't fancy but do keep people social and moving, with daily routines and formal programs that encourage folks to take part and stay engaged with others, which seems to help with both mental sharpness and physical health over time. People can get involved with the community in other ways too, since Accura HealthCare of Creston connects with bigger groups like the Iowa Health Care Association and the Iowa Center for Assisted Living, so there are some chances to participate in programs, councils, and even advocacy if that's of interest, and all these connections often bring in resources and updates that might benefit residents and their families. The facility uses various accessibility tools to make moving around easier and provides help for different needs, though there isn't much specific information about the building itself or the exact amenities available. Overall, the focus rests on individualized help, solid nursing care, and keeping people as strong and comfortable as possible in a homelike place, especially as their needs change with age.
