Gracy Woods I Nursing Center

After visiting my grandfather multiple times I've become extremely concerned about his care. Most recently I arrived in the afternoon on a weekday and noticed my grandfather was in a diaper so wet that I could have rung it out myself, and had sheets that clearly had not been changed in days! I proceeded to the nurse's station where multiple nurses were sitting around talking, laughing, and eating peanuts. After expressing my concern, I was met with attitude and statements like "he must have just woken up," by a few nurses, including one named Kiki, who didn't seem to speak much English; there was a huge language barrier. A little later I spoke with the Director of Nurses Tony Brewer who was very defensive and combative about my concerns, acting as if I were exaggerating. It's clear they have a huge lack of respect for the residents and their families, and they are very dismissive. Getting a family member into a nursing home and squaring away all state requirements for their care is hard enough; I shouldn't have to worry about the lack of his care. I will soon be looking for a new nursing home! In addition I’ll be contacting the state to investigate the entire nursing home if these are the employees they are choosing to hire!

I just have to say that as soon as I was greeted at the at midnight it's been nothing but a great stay. The staff is great. The food has been good. The facility is up to date. Wifi works quite well and very clean. The rooms are spacious, and they have calendar full of activities and such so everyone has a chance to socialize. I sure anyone else will feel the same. Thanks to all the staff at Gracy Woods 1

Our experience so far has been wonderful. It's been about two weeks. I visit twice/day for 1 1/2 - 2 hours so pretty good feel for 6am-2pm and 2pm-10pm shifts. The staff is very kind and courteous both to residents and visitors. It's clean and the food is good. No cold sandwiches for dinner.
