What this means for your family

While some families have had positive experiences with specific social workers, the recurring reports of neglect, bedsores, and poor hygiene are deeply concerning. If you are considering this facility, you must conduct an unannounced visit and specifically ask about their protocol for turning residents and their average response time for call lights during the night shift.

Google Reviews

71 reviews on Google
Savannah Post Acute LLC receives highly polarized feedback, with many families reporting severe concerns regarding neglect, poor hygiene, and unresponsive night-shift staff. While some reviewers praise specific social workers and individual nurses for their compassion, these positive experiences are frequently overshadowed by recurring reports of bedsores, slow call-light response times, and a lack of transparency from administration. Families should exercise extreme caution and conduct thorough, in-person visits before considering this facility for a loved one.

Key Review Excerpts

My mom got discharged from the hospital and went to this facility... First night was TERRIBLE, Night shift crew doesn't care about their patients. They are very slow to respond it took 1 hr and 45 mins to clean my mom after I called 3 times.

Long-term resident's family · 2023☆☆☆☆

My Uncle was severely neglected. Not turned, not changed, not given his pain meds... The bed sores, bruising, and skin lesions on his back tell a different story.

Long-term resident's family · 2026☆☆☆☆

My mom had a level one bed sore due to being in the hospital and now it’s at a level 3 because they do not get her up or rotate her every two hours. NO ONE informed me of this and I found it myself!
