Pacific Coast Post Acute Salinas, California 93901

I have been a patient for Kindred Nursing and Transitional Care many times in the past first time here was back in the year of 2009. My previous stay there I didn't think I was going to make it out. I had been admitted totally debilitated to the point that I had already received a hospice consult. I didn't want to give up and so I went to Pacific Coast to try one more time to get back up on my feet. My stay here was exceptional I have been sick in the past and rehabilitated home but this time around was different. The nurses and CNA were wonderful each and everyone one in the building made me feel safe and comfortable. I did not have any issues with their pain management program. I was placed in a room with another roommate but she was very kind. The room was spacious for both of us. Thank you for all your help Pacific Coast Care!

When we chose this facility we did not have a lot of time to research it. We chose it based on their website. The facility turned out to be very nice and the staff was great. The doctor always called me back when I had a question about my mother. The Social Worker was wonderful. He always took the time to explain everything and seemed to really care about my mother and all the residents. The whole staff was wonderful as well. Going through what my family went through was not easy, but the staff at Kindred made it possible for us to get through it.

Thank you to everyone at Kindred.

I would like to take this time to speak about my care at Pacific Coast Care which began on Aug 12. My wife choose this facility after looking at several others and decided this was the best facility locally. From the time of my arrival, everyone I came in contact with was extremely nice. The following days the therapist contacted me for my occupational and physical therapy. I worked with many different therapists and they all were very encouraging and considerate of my well being. The nursing staff were very empathetic to my needs and were always ready and willing to give me assistance as I requested it. I just want to share that everyone was very professional and was very in tune to my needs. Enclosing, I would highly recommend Pacific Coast care as a facility to be at or have a loved one here for high quality rehabilitation care.

Kindred Care - Pacific Coast provided personal and professional care to my Dad during his last days. I met with the admissions staff, social service and case manager and explained the specifics of what I expected my Dad's care to include, based on his individual needs. All were extremely helpful and passed on the requests to the Nursing staff. The nurses and aides were very attentive and performed their jobs with care and understanding.

We took care of our Mother/in-law at home for 2 years, and decided that we needed the help of a skilled nursing home. Having had wonderful experiences with other family members at Pacific Coast Care, there was no other option for us! "Mom" was a resident for over 5 years. The care given to her was beyond our expectations! The Nurses, CNA's and Staff were excellent, professional and very careing. It wasn't long after "Mom's" admittance, that we considered them a part of our extended family, as they treated our mother as if she were their own. The leval of care has been consistant for many years. The nurses, CNA's and staff loved and respected our mother and we treated them with the same respect and love! ~GREAT JOB PACIFIC COAST CARE~.

I would not recommend this nursing care facility to anyone. We thought that we had made a decision regarding my father's mid-term care - he has Alzheimer's and this is one of the few facilities in the area that has, purportedly, the most comprehensive care. We did not stay long enough to find out.

My father was transferred from Memorial Hospital to the facility a few blocks away. The nurse assigned to the Alzheimer's section was rude, didn't answer questions, didn't listen to us when we were explaining my father's level of comprehension - she also laughed at us at one point. The admitting nurse was dismissive of our concerns when we tried to see what the process was to get my father's full medical history to the facility. We happened to be in the process of dropping my father off during dinner time - the nursing assistants were arguing amongst themselves and tried to force feed my father. My mother had to raise her voice and tell them he wasn't hungry.

This was a very stressful and emotionally difficult situation for my family - I would have thought that this is a situation that is commonly seen at a facility of this type - never did we feel understood or empathized with. The admitting nurse plain out told us - "well, you can take him with you." That is exactly what we did. The only person that was empathetic and tried to repair the situation was the van driver - he went above and beyond to help us - the two nurses could take some lessons from him. In regard to the physical building, wall paper was peeling, the floor was dirty, there was a puddle in the middle of a hallway - overall, a dump. This facility did not inspire the confidence that a family needs to have when facing such a decision.
