This Hospital needs to be upgraded everything from the dividing curtains have holes and only 1 curtain not 2. No A/C room temp is 83 degrees tray table wheels are broken stuck in locked.
The nurses are overwhelmed and patients have to wait hours to get bed changes due to no one there to help patients to go to restroom. The patients are told to urinate in bed and they will change them when they get around to it. My mom has bed soars from the weekend because there is no Therapist on weekends so everyone is on lock down. Her Dr. Has never Ed called me when I requested information about my mom. Nurses are scarcely around and Assistant’s are alway Saying I’ll let the nurse know 3 hours later. Noise everywhere, buzzards and bells going off for the 3 hours I was there with no one either answering them and turning them off. Unacceptable in my opinion and I worked at Kaiser for 9 years and now the service industry for 25 years. This place is absolutely horrible.

I found the people at Kindred to be friendly, professional, and very hardworking. There are multiplie specialities there to address medically complicated patients. My mother is one such patient. We were very pleased at their infection control, wound care, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech language therapy, psychologist, neurologist, care planning team, and both doctors and physician assistants. We also really felt good about the respiratory therapist and services delivered. The nurses, from the CNAs, to the LVNs, to the RNs, are all very dedicated and follow a collaborative work model of teamwork. You can see this teamwork unfold as they do their jobs. The social worker, Kelly Jensen, is excellent, and she demonstrates compassion for the family of the patient, as well as for the patient, so she addresses the holistic unit of the family, family dynamics, and is aware of cultural traditions, multiple generations and societal changes across time that impact patients (for instance, my mother is a long-term smoker, and in her day, smoking was considered acceptable). There were others who are extremely helpful, such as the cooks, the kitchen personnel, all of whom are exceptionally clean, diligent, and pay close attention to dietary needs. The custodian is very kind in that she always explains to confused patients the reasons for her actions in a room, which helps those with dementia, who could otherwise become easily frightened by such things as changing a curtain. Since the custodian is also bilingual, she uses both of her languages to address patients in a respectful and professional way with the ultimate communication possible. I would recommend Kindred facilities for anyone who needs complex care and needs a smaller, more family-oriented facility to deliver this.

I love the way the staff has accommodated me every time I come here (putting me in my own private room). The nurses are friendly and understanding and treat me with respect.

The hospital is unfortunately small but on the flip side they have most everything one miight need, except a dcecent shower. I found most of the tv's soo out dated and blurry, or nonfunctional, i gave up and just used my ipad and netflix. the nursinig staff is overlyladen so, it takes them on ave. 15 min to respond to you r red nurses button. however some are are VERY attentive. Overall though each and EVERY nurse was willing t o go the extra mile. From emptying urinal bottles to putting on clean warn dry socks. I receiveved man very appeciated sponge baths since week over week you become quite filthy and odrous. I always had a spotlesslly clean bed made military hospital style, and nurses that gave me my meds on time and in the right dosages.

I'd like to especially recognize all the guys and gals in the OT/PT department for helping me get my strength and endurance back. I'd like to thank {them: William, Cal, Steve, RJ, Mina, Diana and ohers } especially for cleaning me up and bringing me new towels, gowns, socks, drinks, and food, when needed.

The general nursing staff is typically top notch. I give the biggest kudos to: Lolllie, TDeborah {Debbie} Tammie, Melissa, Tanya, Edica, Alex, James, Vanessa, Carlos Dialysis, Carlos, Alberto, Eduardo, Gerardo, and so many othrs who had not only the courage but the strength and will do do their jos so "ADMIRABLY" I mean Ihte to admit this on myself, but upon admission,one particular male nurse helped clean up my messes I made while trying to amulance myself to the restroom. A miserable job and him being a fan admiral man of color, deserves plenty of raises for doing all hedoes for Kindred. I won't namenaes there because it was a disgusting job to help clean up after myself. Which was so very appreciated.

To the wonderfulDR's. and PA's who not only saved my life they kept me healing, I will eternallly be indebted to them and grateful.

The case management and social workers staff and intenal QA such as charge nurses anALL of the help they gave to me, I cannot appreciate enough.

If there are any names i did not mention, just know your face is in my mind permanentlly etched and your good works will follow you and me all the way up to Heaven when we die.
Respectful Regards,
Jeff Adams

I am pleased with the care that has been given to my husband thus far, Overall the staff has been courteous and professional. However i feel that one or two members of your staff need to address family members in a respectful manner. Calling one by their first name or as mommy or poppy is inapproriate. When I corrected the person that called me Sandra she didn't have the common courtesy to say I'm sorry. Her whole personna seem like oh well whatever.

I was brought in very sick from TMMC.The nurses are very nice and friendly. Theyre always there whenever I need something. RT staff are very great the service I need for breathing are always met. Rehab really encourage you to work hard so I can go back to my normal life. They gave me a feeling to stay positive and do everything the best I can. The services, the employees and my whole stay is went well. I want to come back here again if I become ill again. Larry and Anna are very well appreciated. Thank you very much for the care.
