Driftwood Nursing Center

The rooms were old and run down. The food was bad, had to swat knats off it. The staff was terrible, I rang for nurse to help me go to restroom , she finally come in, after about an hour, said she would come back, never did. I rang again since I had hip surgery and wasn’t supposed to walk by myself. The same one finally came back in and said, Oh did you need to go to the bathroom? It was awful I only stayed 1 night and got out of there.

Food was good, activities and therapy was kind. They were the only ones who cared. Management and the nursing staff are horrible. When it comes to dignity and respect your loved one will never get it there. When staff actually tells them they don’t want to be bothered with taking them to the bathroom to pee and poop on their “diaper” If they want to get up for breakfast and eat in the dining room they tell them no. Please don’t send your loved one to Driftwood

When I visit, I see the staff taking care of the patients. They are attentive to their medications and needs. The people are clean and do not smell. When I enter the facility, I don't spell urine and it is always clean, the floors, windows and the bathrooms. It is well kept. The staff makes sure that the people are active in activities on a daily basis who wants to participate. They are serves snacks as well as their regular foods.

My father stayed at Driftwood Nursing home since after Hurricane Katrina until recently when he died.. I visited several times even though we were not close and found the facility to be an excellent nursing home. The patients were good about watching out for one another...those who participated in activities or got to know other residents There were a few who had crawled up inside themselves or who resented being there or who quite literally seemed detached from themselves but by in large the residents seemed to enjoy the company of others like themselves...Many had relatives that visited often. There were those who didn't have visitors. The staff seemed genuinely concerned for the residents...but I suspect there were a few who weren't as kind as they could have been. I found most of them professional.
