Cumberland Rehab & Health Cc

Little Pod

Access to a doctor to look at my brother's feet seemed to never happen. Doctor had a personal issue for months. Staff does not seem to know how to care for a person with Down Syndrome. My brother has always been an affectionate person (giving hugs) but staff opposed that and he wound up being asked to leave on very short notice. Thankfully another home was found nearby and he loves it there. Not sure if being owned by another company is the cause but it is not a caring facility anymore.

Cumberland Rehab is owned by a company called Petersen. They were unique in that they had a daycare facility. The staff was highly accommodating. I was very surprised at the quality of care and attention that you could get from the staff. They were quite good. However, they would not take Alzheimer's patients overnight. They did not feel they had adequate staffing to cover the potential escapes that might occur with Alzheimer's patients, but they did take them on a daycare basis. You bring a patient, send them in the morning, and pick them up at 5:00 or 6:00. It offered me as a primary caregiver the opportunity to be able to pick my wife on a daily basis or every-other-day basis or twice-a-week basis, so I could go about some daily chores, and that worked out very well. She was able to eat one to two meals per day there, depending upon what time she arrived and what time I picked her up, which were very adequate.
