Only a few CNA's here are compassionate. They don't answer the call buttons for some residents. Tell elderly women to get up and do it yourself when she needs 2 aids to help walk her to the bathroom. Leaving patients lay in their dirty diapers while the CNA's stand around. It's unacceptable when a family member haves to drive there to help their elderly parents to the bathroom. Because the aids don't get there soon enough. Then they get mad at the family member and say they're interfering because they had to do the job these CNA's won't do. I would not recommend this place to an enemy!

My experience with Gandy Crossing Care Center is very good. The therapists are good. Food is good. I wish I didn't have a roommate, but I can't get away from that. I took a fall coming out of my bathtub after a show, and I wrecked my knee, so we're trying to build up the strength in one of my knees that took a beating when I fell. Most of what I do here is to rehab the knee. With regard to activities, they have bingo and crossword puzzles, and those are the only two things that I've participated in so far. The staff is very good. They take care of me. They're doing a good job.

My wife was at this facility for two months. Granted they were understaffed , and hampered by weekly new Covid cases among patients and staff. Can you imagine a healthcare facility with “help wanted” signs staked into the ground out front? There were a number of dedicated hard-working individuals who cared and worked themselves ragged. Then again, there were many of those who were obviously just there to pick up a paycheck. My wife was transported there from Tampa General Hospital. She was not ambulatory because of having no left knee, her leg was restricted by a external stabilizer secured by 4 pins drilled into her bones, 2 in the femur and 2 in the shin. She took Gandy Crossing detailed written instructions from her orthopedic surgeon as well as a quart bottle of Betadine. She was to have the dressings at the base of the pins changed every day and the wound sites cleaned and painted with Betadine each time the dressings were removed. This did not happen. I only saw them do it once when I was there, which was every day. This resulted in the uppermost pin site becoming infected and full of pus, causing a delay in her knee-replacement surgery due to her having a Picc Line at home for 2 months infusing Vancomycin at first and then Daptomycin. Sometime during her stay the bottle of Batadine mysterious disappeared, as well as a number of personal items including clothing Her surgeon prescribed two 2 mg tablets of Oxycodone every 5 hours for pain. A house physician took it upon themselves to reduce her medication two one every 5 hours. After the facility stopped visitations due to Covid, she would sometimes call me in the middle of the night crying uncontrollably due to the pain. I advised her to “Start screaming! Scream just as loud and as long as you can!” She eventually got her pain meds. The only thing that kept her going was having good roommates, with their own stories to tell, with whom she still maintains friendships. My one star rating was generosity on My part.

I visited this facility

Gandy Crossing Care Center was a very nice facility. It was very clean. The staff appeared very friendly. It felt very spacious. It wasn't like little dark corridors kind of thing, like you sometimes see in nursing homes. Their rehab area was very nice and very modern. They had what looked like good equipment in there. I was very pleased with it. You walk in the front door and everything is kind of centrally located, the rehab and the dining room and stuff like that. They had a nice area outside where you could go and sit. It seemed very convenient to the rooms and stuff. The staff were helping everybody. It was busy when I was there, but it was OK.

Rooms are dirty. Staff uncaring and controlling. This center has been fined in the past. Infections are common due to the mix of ailments/patients admitted.

I would like to thank the physical therapy department who worked with me and helped me regain my strength. Farha, Carlos, Marian & Natalie are excellent therapists who worked with me and were so great to work with me on leg presses, walking and weights & balance. I never thought I would walk again and with their help I now can -' amazing staff

My dad is now in Gandy Crossing Care Center. It's an attractive facility. I have no complaints about it whatsoever. The people there (from administration down to the people that come in and take care of him) have all been very, very nice and very helpful. I've asked my dad several times how the food is, and he says it's pretty good. He has no complaints about the food at all. From what I've seen, it's very clean. They go pretty far to keep everything clean, which is amazing to me. This is first time for me with this situation, but they've been extremely helpful (more so than even his primary care physician). They've been really, really good with my dad and with me.

My friend is in the Gandy Crossing Care Center nursing home. I like this one better than the one he was in before. It's not bad, everybody's been nice to me, and very helpful. A nursing home situation isn't the best for people because they just don't like being there but it's not because I think it's a bad place or anything like that. I find the staff very friendly and very helpful. There have been times that they've had to call me. They always call and ask, and tell me what's going on. If there's been a room change or something, they call and tell me, so I find their staff very helpful. He hasn't been crazy with the food that he's gotten anywhere, so far yet, but I have seen him with his food. He's on a special diet so it's softer stuff but I found it tasty and it wasn't bad. It was edible and it's not like what he's used to eating. It's more decent. They have a calendar of activities up. I haven't looked at it because my friend hasn't been interested but they do have it, so I know they have activities going on there. Medicare is paying for it now, but that's about to run out and I think they told me it was 279 dollars a day. That seems expensive, but I don't know how it's compared to other nursing homes.

I visited this facility

I was a patient in the rehab unit following surgery to remove a brain tumor. The physical therapy and occupational therapy were top-notch. I was pushed to exercise in such a persistent way that I progressed fairly quickly. The experience was positive in all regards except for the truly awful food, which made me work even harder to get better.
