Home Nursing

The most horrid place imaginable. When we first went to see our brother (who was placed here by his "loving sister"; she's as much to blame for his death as this place's negligence) he was lying half naked in his bed, which was soaked with urine. The patient in the next bed had an open wound on his leg that stank sickeningly, he said it hadn't been changed in 5 days and no one would help him. I immediately changed my brother's bed sheets, after hunting down other nurses and aides who never showed up, and also alert d the staff about the patient in the next bed, who was crying about his leg. No one helped. The room's bathroom was overflowing with feces and toilet paper and was unusable. I felt like puking the entire time I was there, and for each subsequent visit. In two months, the staff starved my brother, who was also sick with cancer. They were supposed to help him eat, but no one ever did. He was never clean, always lying in his own waste. He was never put in physical therapy so he could get strong enough to get up (which he never had the strength for anyway because they starved him). It was the most horrifying experience and, because the "loving sister" was in charge, we could do nothing legally except watch him get worse and worse, and finally die. Nothing living deserves to be treated in this manner. I curse every single person who was involved in his negligence and death. I hope you all rot in hell.

I TOTALLY DISAGREE with mik ahern's review. He is judgmental and snide. It sounds like he is young and this is the first "old folks home" he has ever seen. Yes, mik ahern, people grow old and infirm. It is not pretty. But the residents here are not dying. They are living. Yes, their physical and mental abilities are reduced, but the Home is helping them live better lives despite this by offering dozens of activities of all sorts to keep them engaged and active. Forced prayer? Well, for one thing the WCA stands for Women's Christian Association (no longer in existence). mik ahern doesn't realize that the generations that live here grew up with organized religion as part of their daily spirituality. What he finds disgusting (prayer and saying grace at meals) they find familiar, comforting, meaningful. And it is not forced. A resident doesn't have to participate if she doesn't want to. And one doesn't have to be Christian to become a resident of the Home. No doubt by the time you get old (gasp! yes, it WILL happen to you, if you are fortunate), services offered by assisted living facilities will have changed and whatever your generation finds appealing is what will be offered to residents.. Smelly? i visit routinely to see my 75 yr. (oldest) sister who lives here, and do not notice any smell (and my "ancient" nose is still working just fine, thank you). Residents have "accidents," yes, but the staff immediately clean these up and clean up the resident, too. Try doing that yourself for your grandmother, mik ahern. The food is very tasty (I've eaten there) and the cooks work diligently to provide creative, delicious, nutritious meals for the residents. They take into account special dietary needs of the residents, as well. Every staff member I've met is wonderful, dedicated to their work, and the residents receive excellent care and attention. The staff to resident ratio is 40 to 37. That is an exceptionally high ratio in assisted living facilities and means that the residents receive lots of attention and care, compared to the typical assisted living facility. Sure, some staff move on to other jobs. That happens everywhere, in any kind of job. The Home has a volunteer group that raises funds to pay for special activities like local trips and outings for the residents, sponsors an annual picnic for residents and their families or friends, decorates the Home for Christmas, and much more. Local groups participate too. For example, a local gardening group made small, fresh flower bouquets that were left on the doors of each resident on May Day. So, mik ahern, if you live to age 80 or so, prove to be mortal and experience the inevitable decline of one's body, you should be so lucky as to "end up" living in a place like the WCA Home. Tammy Skelly's review says it all, "Quality care at affordable prices."

Great attention to its residents. Clean environment. Friendly staff

I've been with Interim off and on since 1999. I was a CNA when started with the company, I was with them for 13 yrs when I left the 1st time. Great company to work for, as with any agency they do have their downfall and that's hrs and pay.

This is the second time they have been late to do my mom nursing assessment. My mom PCP requested Venture Forthe to do a nursing assessment. My mom received a letter two weeks before but Venture Forthe is saying that they didn't receive it yet. I called my mom Medicaid care manager and asked her why you didn't send my mom nursing assessment request paperwork to Venture Forthe? She said we already send it and they should receive before you. First, we usually send to any paperwork office and later to clients so asap clients receive paper they could get a result or let's know. I never recommend anyone to this place.

I went and applied for a job, and the building was so clean.,the residents all seemed very happy, and everyone greeted me with a smile. The interview was very informative, and it seems like a cool place to work. I really i hope i get the job!

Great facility with caring staff. The Rehabilitation department is awesome!

During job interview it went well and was already given all information for orientation. I was looking forward to start however due to conversation with my manager from previous job. All because of lack of communication and misunderstanding. Poor rating!

Excellent facility

I would like to give the facility five stars. My mother attended rehab at the facility after being in Sisters Hospital for almost one month. The team of professionals cared for my mother in a very caring and professional manner. The team of professionals addressed all of my mothers concerns as well as addressing her five daughters concerns. The food was accommodating for Moms Reno diet as well as for diabetes diet. When my mother's term was complete she was healthy and was prepared to return home. We as a family appreciated the care that was provided for our mother.

They are terrible!!! Very inconsiderate, half the time the aide doesn’t show up and when she does, she plays on her phone most of the time. There is a list of things she is suppose to do hanging on the refrigerator and half the stuff never gets done.
