St Johnsville Rehab & Nursing

I am a friend or relative of a resident

We had place my grandpa in this nursing home to get rehabilitated after a stroke. It was not our first choice but it was closest to where we lived. Fortunately we had relatives who were staff there and we were able to get extra attention and care. the atmosphere is very bleak. the rooms are dark and the walls are horribly painted and stained with unknown substances. there are gouges out of the walls and many tack holes. the beds are very old hospital beds and the floors are all stained. The entire facility smells like very strong urine and feces and in the common area there are many immobile lower functioning people just placed in wheelchairs in front if the nurses desk. at meal times then line people up and down the halls and leave them there until its time to get into the cafeteria. The nurses and aides that took care of my grandfather were friendly but its hard to tell if it continued after we left which was only while he slept.
