Sutter Oaks Nursing Center-midtown D/p Snf

My sister-in-law is in Midtown Oaks, a skilled nursing and rehab facility. We've had some problems with them. They’re not being responsive, so we have to push a lot to get things for her. We have not been really happy with this facility, but we can’t really move her anywhere else until she is discharged. As for the staff, there are some good people and there are some poor workers. The therapy staff is amazing, but I don’t think that they are giving her the appropriate level of therapy that she should have. The dining room is not great, but the food is actually pretty good. My husband’s sister is very particular with her food, but she did say that the food is pretty good, so we are pleased with that. The rooms are outdated and small. There is a shared bathroom between two different rooms, and hers is a two-bedroom room, so it is really hard to move around since it is very small. They do have an activities calendar, but the only thing that she has participated in is bingo. They have not provided her with any notice of activities that are going on.

My father was dying of brain cancer. We were trying to get him up here, but he deteriorated so fast he passed away last October. He was in a skilled nursing facility, and then he was in a regular care home. Then he had to go back to a skilled nursing facility. The facility is called Sutter Oaks in Sacramento California. It was favorable to my father because we're Filipino, and the staff spoke Tagalog. This helped with his disease because towards the end he had expressive dysphasia. The fact that they speak the language helped, and he felt comfortable there. It was favorable for my father because he enjoyed being there. They took care of his needs. It’s a very clean facility. I would recommend Sutter Oaks.
