Resident & family reviews
My husband entered for rehab after breaking some ribs and having blood drained from lung. He was weak, disoriented and often not rational. I visited him on a Saturday, noted he seemed weaker and he was not eating or drinking. Blood pressure checks indicated it was dropping. I mentioned these things to several care takers. By very early Sunday morning, I received a call they had left him back at the ER. By the time I arrived (from 70 miles away), the doctors said they did not think he could survive, he was so ill. BP dropped to 40's, vomiting, etc. They treated him, he lived, but still has issues related back to this illness. I know part of the Craig is wonderful, but not the part he was in. They should have been more aware of what was going on with him.
