Bayshore Pointe Nursing & Rehab Center

Helen

My mom is staying at Bayshore Pointe Nursing and Rehab Center. The staff is very caring, and the facility is very clean. I'm pleased with the security, which some people don't like, but they have glass doors. When you walk in and stand in front of the glass doors, the receptionist has to let you in and out. I think that's great. To get on the elevator, you need a code. They make sure my mom is not in her room all the time. She goes to the dining room to eat, which at first, she was not happy with, but now I think she's making friends. The rehab and physical therapy are good. They have a day room where they have a TV. They take very good care of her. She is clean. I had no problems with cleanliness at all. Mom likes the food. Their staff is very caring and very professional. It's an older facility, but it's very clean. It has three levels. It's not brand new. She's still covered under Medicare; she hasn't used up her 100 days. Last year, she was at a different location that was so loud, and the staff would yell and kid around. This place is quiet.

The first thing I noticed with this facility was there was ample parking, beautiful grounds and a large patio and walkway with sitting area outside for the residents and visitors. When I went inside I noticed the downstairs had beautiful furnishings, a large activity room, large exercise room and roomy hallways. When I went upstairs to residents rooms, I noticed they had a variety of residents semi private and private rooms; although not very spacious. The common areas were fairly small and no privacy for visiting. I did notice that the dinning room was very large and enough room for the resident and visitor if they wished to enjoy a meal with the resident. I was able to view their lunch and it did look quite good and very nutritious. The staff was very friendly and quite a few staff members on duty at the time of my visit. I did however notice that there were quite a few call lights blinking unanswered for quite a while. I went back down to the activities center and noticed the facility offers activities every day with a variety of things to do, there is a library and the facility offers transportation for doctor's appointments, etc.
