My husband is staying in Sligo Creek Center. He has been there since June 18th. In terms of location, it takes me almost an hour to get to him there. He also said that he has a little problem with them. He said they hadn't given him a bath. He weighs about 230 and they said that they didn't have a chair for the shower for him. He was supposed to get a shower at least twice a week. So he was upset about that. He is sharing a room with another patient and he doesn't like that. He likes to be by himself. They do keep his room clean though. They also have a calendar of activities but he doesn't participate in any of them. With regard to the staff, he said that some of the staff did not want to tend to him. He said the food is good but sometimes he said he doesn't like it. In general, I don't think the food there is that bad.

If you are seeking the minimal care for your loved one, this is the place.Thought that Genesis Healthcare system would be better, but they are only interested in making money. Some caregivers showed they care, but a minority, most there to get a paycheck, do what is minimally needed, and try to avoid answering questions. Social workers do not return phone calls and do not provide information requested.
1. Lack of communication regarding treatment rehab and requests for medical charts went unanswered.
2. Do not trust what you are told.
3. Cockroaches present bedside.
4. Room cleaning below standards for healthcare.
5. Patient experienced severe dementia that escalated while at Sligo Creek, questioned the staff about them medicating at night. They said no, but would not provide medical charts to family.
6.Once discharged, dementia disappeared completely, imagine that!! It was not a miracle, the staff was indeed medicating without the consent of family.
7. Lack of care multiple days, only putting trays of food, not changing patient
8. They terminated rehab and forced out.
9. Too many patients (many 3 per room) for staffing.
Thank god patient is not there now with COVID. I pray for those patients at Sligo Creek.
