Wetumpka Health and Rehabilita

We toured Wetumpka Health and Rehabilitation. The condition of the rooms was very clean, but I felt they needed some upgrades. They were very informative. The nurses I encountered were all very caring, answered all my questions, and had very good bedside manner with my husband. However, I felt the facility itself needed some upgrades. Their dining area was huge and very nice. It was largely decorated with things that the residents there had made. The food is very good, too. They have very nice common areas, but I think they could have probably added more activities.

My mother-in-law was at Wetumpka Health and Rehabilitation LLC last year. It was a very nice facility. It was impressive when you walked in because there was a big and nice lobby area with high ceilings, but that's not a space that they use for the residents there. I kind of felt it was like makeup on. The staff was nice, but they didn't listen well. We were not pleased with the help and the care that she got. She was put in her room. They were supposed to be rehabilitating her from hip surgery but they just put a diaper on her and left her on the bed, didn't get her up. She was already there for a week before they even asked what we wanted out of her care. I had to be firm about what I expected because they were just going to leave her laying there. The staff was overworked and there's not enough of them.

I volunteered at this facility as a clinical for the High school tech school in Wetumpka. From what I've seen the nursing staff was quite kind and as much on top of it as possible with the dwindling staff numbers most medical institutions are having now. While I spent most of my time with the CNA/Orderly/Tech staff I found the majority to be rather numb to the plight of the patients and not nearly as interested in the patients well being as the nursing staff. While I personally saw no neglect I would keep a close eye on a family member in this facility.
