Eight Mile Nursing and Rehabilitation Center

The nurses that I met while visiting this facility were nice while in my presence. I personally believe however that they contributed to my fathers death. Before my Father had been in this facility he was in another facility located in Daphne, AL for a month or two with no problems. Within two to three days of being moved to Eight Mile Nursing and Rehabilitation my fathers condition deteriorated extremely fast. He went from being awake and conscious to sleeping all day long and not being able to wake up even when any of my family would come to see him. I was very disturbed by this behavior since my father never slept this much before moving to this facility. After a few days my father was moved to the hospital and remained there for a few weeks until he was able to come home even though his condition was still not that of before he went to the nursing home. A few weeks later my father passed away. I believe that eight mile nursing and rehabilitation sedated him so they didn't have to deal with him and because he was asleep all the time they neglected to try and keep him hydrated which worsened his condition and eventually contributed to his death.
