Nursing Home Communities in Pinellas Park, FL

"My mother-in-law is at Gulf Shores Nursing home. She is 94 years old, deaf, and has macular degeneration. She receives social security and has private health coverage. She's also receiving Medicare and Medicaid to pay her stay. It's not easy to live in a nursing home. You will always have its good days and bad days, but this one is always consistently great. Even with her situation right now, the staff are always making sure she's getting the right care and attention. With every situation like hers, it's never been easy. But I'm really amazed with all the staff. They are very professional, knowledgeable, and it seems like they really know what they are doing. I will recommend this nursing home to all the people who need professional and warm care for their loved ones. "

"Horrible place! DO NOT LEAVE YOUR LOVED ONES HERE. Horrible care of psychiatric partients. Drugged up my loved one and changed his health and weight for the worse. -10 STARS "

"This is an excellent nursing home. I've had two family members as residents in this facility. They are extremely clean and professional. They also keep in touch with the family which is very important."

"Putting a relative into skilled nursing on a permanent basis is a tough decision. I am a court appointed guardian and sister of a resident. I can not say enough good things about the Staff at Laurelwood. The professional staff is very caring and DO, ADON, Social worker and activities director are especially vigilant and caring. The majority of CNAs are quite good as well. Nursing staff for the most part are good and caring. This is a small facility that makes getting around easier for for residents. This facility is especially adept at managing residents with behavioral and mental Heath issues. "

"At the initial interview and even once my mother-in-law arrived, we were very impressed with the facility and it's staff as they seemed friendly and positive. However, we should have seen it coming because when we showed up to check her in, no one seemed to know what was going on and we waited 30 minutes in the lobby before anyone could tell us where to go. There were positives and negatives, my mother-in-law said the physical therapy staff were all great and helpful as well as the "administrative staff" but the CNA's and nurses were over-worked and rude. The worst part was that as soon as her Medicare ran out, they practically kicked her to the curb. We were called at work with no advance warning and told to pick her up that day or she would owe $6000.00. She was not done with her physical therapy yet and ended up back in the hospital a week later. Also, she was given a wheelchair and oxygen while she was there and they wouldn't let us take the oxygen for the night even though the supply company was closed for the day. "

"I had made a visit to the facility approximately 2 months ago the young lady I spoke with I believe her name was Megan and I was very impressed by her professionalism and her knowledge of the building and her working responsibilities we are still deciding what location I will be putting my mother and would wanted to give a little feedback on how impressed I was with our initial interaction thank you"

"I did talk with the residents at Consulate Health Care of St. Petersburg, and the residents seem good about the staff that work there. It’s a pretty nice place, it’s clean, and it’s big. They don’t have individual rooms; you have to share with somebody. "

"Tierra Pines Center has one level which I think is good. It was a smaller place, but it seemed more intimate. I liked it. It's easy access to rooms, and they're very good. "

"My sister was a resident here and had been in like 6 different nursing homes in the last year . This is the ONLY Facility that i believe in the area that truely understands people with Alzheimer's . The staff was always great and would always take the time to talk with the family and was a godsend to my sister . She was always clean and and dressed properly . They would always call and let me know about even the least little change in her . Scott Elsass was always a phone call away . You could tell that the staff there had been properly train to deal with all aspects of this disease . My only regret is that i wish i would have heard about Largo Rehab & Spa sooner . I would like all the staff to know just how much the family appreciated there kindness ."

"Abbey Rehab and Nursing Center is not the best looking, but it has lots of good service. The medical staff is very attentive and my daughter is happy there. They have nurses and nurses' aides, and two doctors who come daily to check on the patients. The staff is fine, very good, and very friendly. "

"I lived here for a long time. The building is old but they keep it well The food is good alot of times great The new staff is amazing"

"My Dad was at this facility. The staff is top notch! Caring, Considerate, and friendly. Made my father feel comfortable and left me feeling safe. Food was good according to him. Thanks for your amazing care! "

"I would recommend this community to all of my family and friends. My husband spent the last three weeks of his life at this community. The kind, compassionate staff who cared for him went above and beyond to provide him with a safe, clean, and caring environment. Managers and nursing staff kept me informed of any concerns. They responded to any of my questions and took the time to explain what their recommendations were to provide better care I have worked in healthcare for over 50 years and I can honestly say this is one of the best that I have experienced. "

"Bay Pines VA Health did a very nice job with my father. They had nurses and occupational therapists. Its physical appearance was good, but it was more institutional. They should improve on the food. The staff was very friendly, thorough, and available. It's older, but it's so clean. It's a community living center, not so much a nursing home, and it offered bingo, trivia, and exercise classes. You could go and enjoy whether you're immobile or mobile."
