Review of Metron of Lamont

1 Star User Review

The staff seemed to care and tried to help my stepfather who had alzheimer's disease but the doctor who only came around once a week for an hour or 2 was the worst doctor I have ever spoken to. He is the doctor that has charge of this nursing home. He only saw my stepfather once for a few minutes after he had been there for weeks. He was supposed to do a complete evaluation so we could move him to another facility. After another week my mother said she needed his help to get the evaluation or she couldn't move him. He said that he should stay there and wouldn't do it! My stepfather got pneumonia and the antibiotics weren't working so we ordered palliative care. They said he would probably die within 3 days. We wanted him to be as comfortable as possible so the nurses contacted the doctor for pain medication that morning. My mother and I saw this doctor that evening when we visited my stepfather and he said 4 times "you just caught me as I was leaving" as he sat there and ate his orange. My stepfather was dying and all he could say was that he was leaving. He never saw my stepfather that night. We found out that he hadn't ordered any of the medication that he was supposed to so he turned to the nurse and ordered him to write down that they had talked about his medication (which they hadn't) and to put him on more pain medication starting immediately - 8 hours after he was supposed to do that. This guy is a big wig at Pinerest too. He should have his license revoked!!! If you care about your loved ones, do not put them in this place. All they care about is there monthly check from you.
