Whisperwood Nursing & Rehabilitation Center

Tammy

I went to Whisperwood Nursing & Rehabilitation Center. It's more of skilled nursing, but they do have lifetime residents there. I'm not impressed with that place at all. It felt more like a nursing home, and I didn't want my parents in that kind of atmosphere. They're too young for that. It was nice, but not a place for my parents. I can't say a whole lot about this facility because I was not impressed at all, so I didn't stick around. And they were very expensive. It was going to be $5800 per person, so that wasn't a matter of one rent and then a second person rent. They only do one person per room. But I'm not paying like $11,000. That could have something to do with the fact that it is skilled nursing, and they have a lot more staff there whereas my parents aren't up to that point of needing that kind of stuff yet. It's a lot older building, it has probably been around since the early 1960s. It's old on the inside, but they are trying to do some renovating. There's a community bathroom in the hallway and things like that. There was no individual bathroom in their rooms. I didn't try their food. I didn't even see a dining room, so it makes me wonder if they don't get their meals in their rooms. When you first walk in there, you've got offices and then you've got the nurse's station. It's like a wagon wheel and they've got hallways for different people. There's a hallway for anyone that's a couple. Then for people that have severe dementia and Alzheimer's, they have a hallway for men and a hallway for women, and those units are locked. And then they have three other hallways.

This is an older facility. It is not fancy…but it is very clean, well maintained and professionally run. The staff is attentive, caring and respectful of my loved one’s dignity. This is not the first loved one I have had in this facility…I cannot say enough about how how caring the staff is. They are awesome.

My sister is in Whisperwood Nursing & Rehabilitation Center. It is a very good nursing home, and she is happy there. I go visit her every day, and they are very caring and very nice. She is bedridden, and the staff is very nice. While I am there, they are always kind and they ask her, "Do you need anything, do you want anything, do you want us to change you?" They are always coming in and seeing how she is doing. I think they are very good nurses. They keep the facility clean. They said that they give her a bath every other day. They give the women baths one day and then the next day the men. It is just way far for me. It is all the way on 4th Street. It is a pretty clean nursing home, and I do not see anything that is dirty. The few days that I was there with her, they brought her pretty good food. She ate all of it. The only thing that I noticed when you put the light on, it took a while before they went in to check and see what you wanted.

This place needs to be investigated. I cannot believe the level of “care” my father has received. The nurses are negligent and irresponsible. My father is always having his things stolen, finding other people in his sad and worn bed, and being accused of things he didn’t do. No one pays attention to the Alzheimer’s “wing“ which is just a filthy hallway with a few tiny and dirty rooms. He has been attacked by other residents and then blamed for it with ZERO witnesses. In the midst of our mom being put on hospice and passing away, this negligent facility was constantly calling and demanding we move our dad. Oddly, they have no cameras to prove he ever hurt anyone. He has been the one with head wounds and a bloody lip. There are little to no activities to engage the residents. They just sit in the hall staring out, or sit in the “lounge” on a old couch watching tv. That’s it. They have tarnished my dads record with their ridiculous claims and now no other place will take him because of it.

The Medication technician ate my mom's psychiatric medication instead of giving it to my mom. She ended up in a psychiatric ward for 2 weeks. They also threw out all of her family photos. Shoes went missing, as well. On the abuse hotline with HHS right now.
