Review of Hempstead Park Nursing Home

1 Star User Review

Hempstead Park is one of the worst nursing homes ever. Patients are treated roughly and without compassion. Their diapers are changed only when family is there and keep asking for them to be changed. Often my mother's hair smelled badly. I never once saw an RN in the time my mom was there and only saw LPN's a few times. The people who took care of the patients were NA's and HHA's though I don't even know if they were certified. I tried to get my mom into another nursing home but I kept getting a runaround. My mom died several days ago of cardiac arrest {she never had heart disease}. Please don't let your loved ones have the same fate!!!

don't know if they were certified.

I feel very bady that your experience was not good. My family member was a resident at Hempstead and I was very happy with the care. Everyone was very helpful and most of the staff were very caring. It is hard for famlies to put their families in a nursing home but Hempstead did a very good job and my family was very happy with everything they took very good care of my Aunt. Physical Therapy Department was great. She had cancer and couldn't walk anymore and it was heartbreaking to see her so sick, but she was very glad to have so many workers who took extra time to talk to her and take good care of her. The nurses and the aides always made sure she was comfortable and got her whatever she needed.
