West Lawrence Care Center, L L C is a nursing home located in Far Rockaway, New York. It provides care for individuals requiring assistance with daily living and medical support. The facility aims to support residents with various health needs through comprehensive nursing and rehabilitative services. Among the services offered, West Lawrence Care Center employs an Electronic Medication Administration Record (eMAR) system. This system is designed to streamline the medication administration process by electronically documenting each dose given to residents, helping to ensure accuracy and reduce the likelihood of medication errors. This integration can facilitate more precise management of medications, potentially benefiting resident safety and treatment outcomes.
Despite the implementation of systems like eMAR to enhance resident care, reviews from residents and their families present a mixed image of the facility's performance. Some reviews highlight positive aspects, such as the quality of food, attentive staff, and beneficial therapy sessions that aid in the adjustment process for residents. These elements are appreciated for their role in promoting comfort and improved living conditions. However, many reviews raise significant concerns about neglect in basic care, insufficient medical attention, and unprofessional conduct by the staff, which are serious issues that have allegedly led to adverse health outcomes, such as untreated bedsores. Additionally, problems in communication, especially during emergencies and critical situations, are reported, affecting the trust and satisfaction of residents' families. The facility's reports of inconsistent care quality underscore a need for addressing systemic issues to ensure residents receive the full extent of medical and personal support required for their well-being.
