Tallassee Health and Rehabilitation

This is the sorriest run NH I've ever seen. I'm a retired LPN that spent my career in NHs. The staff is lazy and don't care about the residents. It smells and the cleaning staff barely touches the rooms. It had no respect for residents dignity. It has multiple safety issues. Even supply closets are left opened where residents can get to otc meds. They are always short staffed and short on supplies. The nurses and aides are constantly on cell phones. They take over 30 minutes to answer call lights. One lady fell on floor and laid there over an hour before she got help. If you care about your loved ones take them to the dog pound before here they'll get better care.

Tallassee Health and Rehab smelled all the time. Every time we went to visit our grandmother, we always found bruises on her, and she's been telling they were mean to her. We had to go to emergency room because she fell several times. Other patients bullied her and pushed her. In fact, a woman came in her room and pushed her down. Her whole right thigh was broken, a broken shoulder, and foot. She's was 88 years old they did a hip surgery. She died 24 hours after her hip surgery. The doctors said it's because of her heart problem and her age. While they do have activities going on. On Sundays a church group would come and sing. Or they play bingo. My grandmother also had Alzheimer's, so she never participated much at all. I suggest that the administrator needed to be replaced, because the place always smelled and they weren't accurate about medical records, too.
