We already placed him at Kern Rehabilitation. We are very happy and very satisfied with it. The staff is very nice and very helpful. We really like them a lot, and they really take care of them. It is really close to my home. It is only like a mile from my home, and I just like the whole atmosphere, with the people there and the doctor. They have activities there. They have different things -- like my dad does walking -- and they play games. The have like little concert singing groups. They just have different activities.

My mom is now in the Kern Rehabilitation Center. We transfered her there because she has more family in Bakersfield. It is an older facility. The staff is very willing and kind, but there is still the issue of slower response time like in the previous facility she was in.

My mom placed my grandmother here less than a year ago. My grandma went from being able to use the bathroom on her own to wearing a diaper full time. She went from surly and feisty to depressed and withdrawn. She also has bed sores which is obviously due to the staffs neglect. To top it all off as if everything else isn't bad enough, an employee was stealing money from the residents including my Grandmother. They were charging her almost $2000 dollars to live there and she had to share a room with two other people. The standard of cleanliness of this place is poor. Other patients were going into her room and being physically abusive. At one point she had a pretty bad fall yet they did not take her to the hospital to ensure there wasn't anything serious. Also her medication wasn't being administered properly. All the rumors you hear about rest homes for the elderly are true when it comes to Corinthian gardens. This is not a place for rehabilitation yet a place to send your loved ones to die.

Dad was at the Corinthian for about 24 hours and it was so bad that I had to move him out of there. The room has three patients and it smelled like urine. The place was unsanitary. The staff was not accommodating. It was just really not any place that you would want your loved one to be.

They are treating my father bad! The nurses hurt the tube inside of his stomach, while moving him to his side twice! The nurses or workers, whatever they are give you straight attitude, they are dirty, and smelly, i wouldnt recommend this place! My father had to go in his bed twice because the nurses dont help him, nor listen to him! I hate it there. No one go! Take your loved ones out of there now!

The facility itself is not in the best condition, there are always odd smells and things seem to be somewhat dirty. The employees are friendly enough, but seem to be handling a lot of different patients and are very busy. My grandmother receives great care from her nurse though, but others that have worked with her do not seem to care as much. I think that since someone from our family is there at least once per day, and many of the employees have been there for several years, there has been a good relationship and that is why she receives better care than others may. The location is not the greatest, in between a freeway and a shopping center, but my grandmother seems relatively content with it. There is not as much outdoor space as other facilities she has lived in, or larger rooms where a group can meet for a party or other occasion. It is a facility that serves mostly patients that are on government assistance I believe, so the second rate conditions are not a surprise.
