Golden Livingcenter - Sycamore Village

Do not send your loved ones here!!! I feel very lucky to have gotten my husband out of here alive. The management here is absolutely the worst!!! The charge nurses are rude to family and to the patients. The nurses that work under them, I feel very sorry for them, most of them were very nice and careing, as were the aides. They left my husband lying for hours in pools of urine staring at the ceiling. This place should be shut down.

Bottom line - i wouldn't kennel a pet at this place, let alone a love one! Very VERY poor management - for the most part they have a great nursing staff, the problem is they are usually way understaffed. Many times there being only one nurse for an area that's suppose to be covered by three, same for the nurse's aids! I called for a nurse once so she could remove an empty antibiotic bulb from my pic line - four, yes FOUR HOURS later she came in saying she was never informed - I had hit my call light three different times and told an aid what I needed. From then I wouldn't allow them to shut my call light off until service was given. They do have a top-notch occupational and physical therapy department. Very knowledgeable and friendly staff there. The food - absolutely horrible! I was told by the head dietitian they they use no salt in their kitchen. Until I insisted upon it I was allowed no salt with my meals so you have no idea how terribly bland the food tasted, salt didn't end up helping much. Menu items were questionable as well, why would you serve Brussel sprouts knowing many patients will not care for them, especially when they are way overcooked! On one Saturday evening Supper was basically hot dog & sour krauth. Squash & uneatable green beans were often served. The beverage for EVERY meal besides breakfast - Kool Aid. I sent a picture of my breakfast to my son one morning - he ask me why I sent him a picture of my being sick, that I told him, was my breakfast - biscuit & gravy. Many times I ended up not eating the meal served - if you asked they would serve a replacement which usually was something like a peanut butter and jelly sandwich or grilled cheese. Never again will I ever be placed at a Golden Living Center!

My husband is in Golden Livingcenter - Sycamore Village. The help has called me. I only got to see him once and it was last week. They're very good about it, they let me know everything, the care is great, the doctors call me and stuff, but I haven't really seen it up close and personal. He seems to be comfortable there.

My wife was at Golden LivingCenter - Sycamore Village for rehab. She went out last Friday. The service was great, as well as the people that they had working back there. She was in their assisted living when she broke her hip. They replaced the ball and she went into rehab. All the people were good, but you could tell it was an old facility. The food didn't look too bad.

These are some of the rudest staff I have ever met! I would not recommend this place to anyone.
