Greenbriar Rehabilitation and Nursing Center

Carolyn

My father is in Greenbriar Rehabilitation and Nursing Center. The place seemed clean. It seemed that they had enough staff, but some of that wasn't true after he got there. I go every day to see my father and help take care of him, feed him, and put him to bed, and my daughter bathes him. I think for what it is, it's fine, but I have to go there every day, or one of my four family members. They need more people. I can understand that it's hard to get people in, but they were explaining that they contact an agency when they are short, and they have people come in that really don't know the routine. When I toured the place, they would tell me, "Oh, we do this and that." When we got there, they don't do all that stuff. He keeps getting the same food. He's on a pureed diet. They don't bring something to drink. Sometimes, they don't bring a dessert. Sometimes, it's in a Styrofoam container with plastic utensils, which I don't like. One napkin comes in the prewrapped spoon and fork. My daughter wanted to take him to bingo, but they said there wasn't enough people to play bingo. They needed five people, and I think maybe three was there, but even if one person came, they should have been playing bingo. He just went to the puzzle room. There wasn't anything spectacular in what they were doing. There's a courtyard.

This facility was literally one of the BEST me and my family could’ve thought to place my uncle after we were no longer able to assist him and his needs!!!! Thank you to the staff. You were all awesome. The place always smelled good unlike some nursing homes that smelled of URINE, this was NOT ONE OF THOSE!!!!

I was skeptical at first but I actually enjoyed myself. The staff was nice and helpful. They would come into my room and laugh and kid around with me to take my mind off of what they were doing to me. Giving me a shot, taking my blood pressure, etc. They had a way of making you feel safe. I had my own room and I loved my privacy. I was treated better there than at home. Wasn't too crazy about the food though. But other than that I would glady recommend Greenbriar to my friends and other family.

At first sight the facility is beautiful. The so called attention to detail was on point until you look beyond the facade of falsehood. We as a family were told my father was "doing great" walked 700ft his first night. So much so they put a wanderer bracelet on him. Meanwhile, my father has early onset white matter disease and is unable to walk 700 ft without assistance. But low and behold. We were hopeful. And erredon the side of caution were we ok with the wanderer bracelet. Safety first. But my mother picked him up yesterday and he smelled like old urine and poop. Like he had not been cleaned in day. So much for him walking to the bathroom on his own. Secondly, we could not get him in to the house without assistance from two neighbors as his brain and his feet did not communicate appropriately. I had to put him in his wheelchair to get him into the house. To top this all off. His blood glucose was 400mg/dl. How is it that you discharge someone from a facility that is suppose to manage an individual who is insulin dependent and he has a blood sugar of 400 when he gets home. Unacceptable. Not to mention his UTI that his is now diagnosed with at Blake Medical. Used the bathroom my A**!! Medical records as well as patient presentation will definately tell us what really happened at Greenbriar during my fathers stay. Oh and lets not forget the demands from the facility that my mother had to pick him up early "because insurance did not cover his stay" again cough cough my a**.

The short term care and rehab area was ok. The löng term area left a little to ne desired. The food was mot very good.

My mom was well taken care of while in rehab for a fall. The nurses and aides we're kind and gentle. Her PT went well and allowed her to leave earlier than expected. Our area was very clean and smelled good! My father while visiting mom had an accident in the bathroom, an aide found some clean clothes from somewhere which allowed him to stay with mom. The aides cleaned up the mess and were sympathetic and kind to my dad as well.
