Melissa Cahoon 1 review I wish I could give it no stars. First the facility smells of urine and feces,why have carpeting in the rooms if you don't clean them. My father had waited long period for help. He would be left in a wheelchair with no undergarments and the gown barely on him. He didn't get the care he needed and they barely had enough food for his meals as they were continously out of product. I would ask them everyday to shave my father face so he could have a boost in self esteem, yet they couldn't be bothered. The 3 weeks he was there, I do not believe they took him to the bathroom once and a patient with Parkinsons, they are unable to feel certain things or pains. On the 18th he was sent to the ER for low blood pressure when in the end it was discovered his colon had ruptured and he ended up passing. Please do not allow your love ones to go there.

I was unfortunate to be confined in this facility for over two weeks about two years ago and have to say it was the worst two weeks of my life. I've spoken with others who have had family members who were patients at this facility and they had the same horror stories. I would not advise admitting a loved one at this facility! I'm sorry now that I did not report the substandard and lack of needed care that I experienced during my stay to the state oversight boards who oversee patient care at these facilities!
