Life Care Center of Auburn

My family has been with LifeCare of Auburn for over 2 years now. My mother fell down her cellar stairs causing unbelievable, critical injuries. She survived due to the incredible UMASS hospital and staff. She went to LifeCare for sub-acute rehab. They worked hard, but decided she probably would never do better. She got mad and said, 'don't give up on me yet..... They said, 'OK'. She proved that her determination and their wonderful staff made a great combination. She went home 2 months later. Because of their wonderful work, we decided that when Dad was struggling to take care of himself, he would go to LifeCare's rehab facility. He deteriorated mentally and physically and we placed him there permanently. Because he was a WWII disabled veteran, his stay was taken care of by the VA. What a great year we had with him and LifeCare of Auburn! They took such good care of him (and us). We all just became a blended family, partly because of Mom's connection, then Dad's, but also because they always thought of us too. They cried along with us when Dad went to heaven……. It will be hard not to go there everyday anymore…… we will always hold them near and dear to our family!

Not equipped for Alzheimer Patients! My mother was sent here for rehab after a fall. She was given rehab for the fall, but the staff was not prepared to give the cues, prompts and assists required for daily living activities. Some Aides were terse with several elderly patients. I moved Mom back to her assisted living and private-paid for 24 hr. care for several weeks, until she had fully recovered.
