Portland Care & Rehab Center

Susan

My mom has been in Portland Care & Rehabilitation Center. I really like it because she was in another rehab facility a couple of years ago, and it was horrible, and the staff is very caring here and they are treating her so well. She has therapy twice a day in the morning, and then in the afternoon OT and PT. They have a weekly schedule of bingo, cards, games, trivia, and all those kinds of things. Tomorrow, she said they're going to have mass and the stations of the cross, which is very important to her. They do the rosary every other week and she's a religious person, so that's important to her. The staff is very nice. When she pushes that call button, they're there, whereas at the other place, she waited half an hour before somebody got there. It's a smaller place, and the staff seems very, very attentive. They're very friendly. Everybody from the cleaning people, to the nurses, to PT, to the aides, everyone is very friendly, they treat my mom like a queen. Every day, the cleaning lady comes in and wipes everything down, like the floors and all the surfaces. It's very clean. It could use a tiny bit of updating, the furniture is little bit old, but I'd rather have older furniture and go to help than it being fancy and lousy help. My mom said the food is fair. They seem to have a lot of activities. They went outside and she was happy with that. They have stuff but she doesn't go to some of it because she is tired in the afternoon. Insurance is paying, so it's worth it to me.
