La Plata Center

When he got admitted to the hospital because he fell, they sent him to Genesis HealthCare afterward. I did not choose this facility. The place was fine. The nurses were good and they got him to dance and made him feel good. One of the nurse took him to a mall every Thursday. However, it came to a point when I had to hold my breath because there was a lot of odor. It would be better if they paid attention if they had to be in the room with somebody and stop anything that smelled offensive. They also should make sure the rooms were clean.

Considering the location and price, my expectations upon first visiting were low. Everyone I interacted with seemed friendly and my mom got along well with the staff from what she told me. Many of the residents were in very bad shape though and it would be a stretch to call this an active retirement home. They did appear to offer plenty of activities and interaction for the residents. There was also a separate wing for the more ill patients, and it was less active and mostly limited to nurses and staff. I would recommend this facility.
