Covenant Living of Florida

I would definitely recommend Covenant Living to anyone who is unable to maintain their present home. The apartments are lovely and the location is very convenient for most needs… shopping, restaurants.

My father was moved to Covenant Living Skilled Nursing in December after a fall and discharge from the hospital. I was very clear to ask about his secondary insurance covering what Medicare did not. It was the PRIMARY concern after being assured he would be well cared for. All of this happened so fast - I asked repeatedly to be sure he would not incur out of pocket charges. There was another skilled nursing facility we were considering, but chose Covenant because we actually thought it would be better. Within 24 hours, we were told he would be kicked out (Christmas Eve) if we did not provide 24/7 private pay aides to sit with him as he was trying to get out of bed. He was frantic, disoriented, delusional after being in the hospital for two weeks and in severe pain from multiple fractures in his shoulder. He was already partially paralyzed from birth on one side. The hospital stay had meant he was separated from his wife of 64 years. YES! He was trying to get out of bed. She has Alzheimer's and in his brain fog and pain, he was terrified that she was home alone. So, rather than show compassion, and provide SKILLED NURSING, they said we had to pay private care. *** side note *** he was there for a month -- and during that time, his other roommate was also told he must have private duty care to stay! After two weeks of that,our day time aide said he was no longer trying to get out of bed at night. So we cut back to 12 hours of private care. And one day towards the end of his stay...a nurse asked me why we were paying for private duty??? There are things that just do not add up. Let me be clear here - there were some fantastic people working at Covenant. There were two specific therapists who were phenomenal people - caring, considerate, helpful and truly called to work in this field. I will refrain from disparaging across the board. I will just say this - go anywhere but here if your loved one needs skilled nursing. Then, one Friday evening I got a call from th

Why are you only allowing positive reviews for this place! DO NOT SEND YOUR LOVED ONE TO THIS FACILITY This was the WORST EXPERIENCE of my life! My mother was in the skilled nursing facility for rehabilitation after a stroke & NEVER came home….SHE DIED IN THIS PLACE! The caregivers are more interested in socializing than caring for their sick patients! NOT ONCE was I ever able to speak with a doctor to find out about my mothers’ condition, how the rehabilitation-progress was going, what medications she was receiving, her care, feeding, etc. I was contacted by a nurse ONLY to notify me of her passing away! PLEASE DO NOT SEND YOUR LOVED ONE HERE!!! You may never see them again!
