  Your tech Ari Rodriguez is such a fresh breath of Air to see when you walk on the floor. She is exceptionally personable and always has a huge smile on her face ! The care I have seen while there is outstanding! I have personally seen her go above and beyond.

  While my mother lived in the Notre Dame du Lac Harmony assisted living memory care, she had a hospitalization and needed to be discharged to rehab. The du Lac team recommended their own rehab, which ND calls the Long-Term Care building, and facilitated her discharge to there in May. Initially it seemed great, being right nextdoor, and was handy for things like picking up clothes. Unfortunately, they were in the middle of a construction project and incredibly overcrowded, apparently due to rooms being unusable while being renovated. Bizarrely, during the months my mother lived there, ND did not seem to slow down accepting new admissions, despite the renovations and the hallways and dining area being so crowded, wheelchairs blocked doorways and the place was like one giant fire code violation. Meals are so crowded and rushed that staff serve on paper plates with plastic utensils. In a skilled nursing rehab with a memory care, where folks have physical challenges and neurodegeneratative diseases like Parkinson's with tremors, plastic forks and spoons are far from ideal. My mother barely ate and lost a considerable amount of weight. In fact, with tremor and Parkinson's, weighted utensils with built-up bulky handles are what OTs recommend. Traditional silverware can be hard, but disposable plastic cutlery is cruel, and not what one expects at $500 a day. During the summer, all the groups seemed to take place outside in the courtyard no matter how hot it was. There never seemed to be an alternative indoor activity. Staffing shortages are the norm, causing things like my mother's shower day to be skipped repeatedly, and regularly incredibly long waits of 30 minutes or more when pressing the call button. We were told by the ND rehab she was ready to be discharged and that she could go back to the du Lac Harmony. We were even given a discharge date, then suddenly just a day or two before, in the middle of making plans and with my mother having been told she could go back to
