Review of Life Care Center of Elkhorn

1 Star User Review

A family member was placed in this facility as a last resort, as the other facilities that we wanted him to go to had no beds available. Needless to say the rating they were given by the state and senior care people were far to kind. My family member was place in this facility for what was suppose to be rehab. and wound care. The rehab part was very well and did the best they were able to. The nursing staff and there wound care staff was awful, and on numerous occasions we witness them being down right mean and causing him pain on purpose, as my family member now has to have part of his leg amputated as his wounds ended up with gange green and the dead tissue down to his bones and the pain became unbearable, because of there negelance, he was also considered malnutrition when we the family could not see him like this anymore and the lies they were telling us we wanted him to go to hospital, Instead of calling an ambulance they used their van to transport him to the hospital, dropped him off outside the ER and left, without checking him in and wait for one of his children to show up.. Thank God one his daughter and son in laws were following them so he only had to sit outside by his self for a few minutes before they arrived and had to wheel him inside of the ER and check him in. We do not recommend the place for anyone who loves there family members and want what is suppose to be good quality care. PS they allow you to bring pets in on Sunday's, our dog would not even eat the food they served, he smelt it and walked away… that tell you and us why he was considered malnourished when he was admitted to the hospital.
