What this means for your family

This facility's physical and occupational therapy departments are highly regarded and frequently cited as the reason for successful patient recovery. However, families must be extremely vigilant regarding daily nursing care; multiple reviewers have reported severe neglect and slow response times. We strongly recommend visiting at irregular hours and maintaining frequent, direct contact with the nursing station to ensure your loved one's basic needs are met.

Questions for Your Tour

  • 1Given the facility's strong reputation for physical and occupational therapy, how do you integrate those rehabilitation goals into a resident's daily routine?
  • 2I noticed that responsiveness is a priority for families; could you walk me through your current process for monitoring and answering call buttons to ensure residents get timely assistance?
  • 3Maintaining high hygiene standards is very important to us—what are your specific protocols for daily room cleaning and ensuring residents receive consistent assistance with bathing?
  • 4I appreciate that you are active in responding to feedback online; how do you use that communication channel to address family concerns and keep us updated on our loved one's care?
  • 5With a 2-star CMS staffing rating, what steps are you taking to ensure that your nursing team has the support they need to provide attentive, high-quality care to all 88 residents?
  • 6Since medication management is a key part of daily health, could you explain how you track and verify that medications are administered accurately and on time?

Key Review Excerpts

The therapy in Union saved my life. I will be discharged home tomorrow, better than how I admitted.

Rehab patient · 2022★★★★★

Apparently they are short staffed as in she laid in her on feces for several hours. She had pushed the button several times. This has happened more than once in her stay.

Long-term resident's family · 2024☆☆☆☆

Everyday is not picture perfect, but at the end of the day , I still call Union Post Acute HOME.

Both RN and total nursing hours are below national benchmarks. This can mean less clinical attention per resident, so ask about their staffing plan.
