My dad was a resident there I believe from 2016 until his death in 2018. He was very vocal about how he felt about anything and would often cuss at staff members and residents. He often expressed that the people there weren’t right. Before he passed away, I went by for a visit. He was in his room in bed, but seemed out of it. I asked him if he was ok. He said no. He said that a staff member threw him out of his bed and he couldn’t walk anymore. He could only walk a little from his bed to the bathroom before. I confronted the front desk. Of course they said it didn’t happen and that the person in question who allegedly did it wasn’t there any more. They said my dad was talking out of his head. One thing about it, he knew what he was talking about and wouldn’t have made it up so I believe it happened. I asked them why I wasn’t told. I got no real answer. I believe the next week he was sent to the hospital. He had awful bed sores. I regret I didn’t take pictures. They talked him into signing papers to talk to some so called psychiatric doctor who put him on strong medication to keep him calm. This was done without my consent (I had POA). He was doing pretty good before this. He was never the same after they started these medications. His health went down rapidly. The last time I saw him, he wasn’t eating or drinking, but he made an effort to eat and drink for me. Mind you, I never received a phone call to let me know he was sick. The one phone call I got the day before he died was to say they didn’t think he was going to make it. The next day (8/22/18) he died all alone with no family there. I tried my best to make it to him but it was too late. I take comfort in knowing that JESUS was there with him. The lady in charge never offered her condolences. A couple of staff members expressed their sympathy.
