Key Review Excerpts
“The place could be cleaner. They could answer the phone regularly. They could help the patients a little bit with their nails and hair, which would make them feel better for sure. I noticed unchanged diapers, and they must be changed more.”
“This place should not be in service, they never answer the phone so I got on a flight and showed up to find my family member tied up in his wheelchair I was shocked, no sheets on his bed ,I asked for wash cloth to wash him they said there is paper towels in bathroom, and there was none, please don't go here.”
“Pines Nursing and Rehab has amazing Nurses and staff that really care. They have on-site dialysis and are great with Trach patients.”
