Review of Healthcare and Rehab of Sanford

4 Star User Review

I've heard all the stories about bad Nursing Homes. When my dad got sick and needed more care then we were able to give him at home , it broke our hearts to leave him in one. We spent as much time with him as possible , nearly all day and evening every day. He was in there nearly 2 months. He got weaker and weaker , to the point he could no longer hold himself up and in the end he could no longer feed himself. My sister and I were devastated and running on little sleep ourselves. During this time , The Nurses and CNAs treated him with the utmost respect and care. Right down to clipping his fingernails and powdering him down after they bathed him , because they knew he liked it. The Kitchen staff found out he liked certain foods and disliked others , and made sure he got what he liked. Maintenance came to check his air conditioner and cleaned the filter , checked the smoke alarms. Physical therapists and Occupational therapists came to care about him as well and even if he could no longer try the exercises , they would stay and talk to him anyway. I found the building to be clean and safe. They are redoing the floors and painting and redoing the patients rooms as well. I am eternally grateful to the People who knew and cared about my dad enough to make his last days as pain free as possible , both in body and spirit. They are just as thoughtful of the other patients as they were with dad , I had a lot of time to see things. If it were permitted to name names , I would , you all know who you are , thank you again , from the bottom of my heart.
