My Dad was taken to Manor Care to recover from colon surgery. Initially, he made progress both medically as well as in physical therapy and occupational therapy. These services and staff were excellent. After several weeks, Dad stopped making progress and began to decline. He experienced edema and weakness. We questioned nurses and staff daily about his condition, and they just kept treating symptoms without trying to find the cause. Nurses and staff were dismissive about our concerns as my dad continued to decline. They even called a meeting to discuss his discharge since he wasn’t making progress. Several days later, we received a call that he had been taken to the hospital. He passed away later that day. The cause of death was from sepsis. I feel that this could have been diagnosed and treated by Manor Care and we would still have my dad with us. We put our trust in this facility and hoped that he was getting good medical care. This was not our experience. I would never place another loved one in their care or recommend this facility to anyone.

My husband was admitted into Roselane on 2/4 (or 2/3) for rehab after having back surgery at Kennestone in Marietta. I should have known what type of facility this was when a lone female took him to be weighed before they even did a fall assessment on him. She let go of him and he fell, landing on his butt. Mind you he had staples about 7 to 8" high where he had a laminectomy. At the time, it did not appear to have hurt him so we let it go. They constantly let him swim in his urine. Because of his obesity, he could not use a urinal and he could not take himself to the bathroom because of his back. They also let him swim in his feces. Fast forward a couple of weeks and his back started hurting him a lot. They constantly ignored his cries. One night I was helping him with his shorts and the band kind of scraped his incision area. Later on I found out there was a lot of blood coming out of the incision. It turns out it was infected!! He was taken to the doctor and he was admitted back into the hospital so they could clean up the wound. In the mean time it turns out he had ecoli from swimming in his crap. It was suggested that I sue your sorry butts. I don’t wa t to have anything to do with you as I lost my husband March 14th from your lack of care. Right now the whole medical community is just sorry. Steer clear of this place people if you don’t want to lose your loved ones to incompetence.

My dad moved into A.G. Rhodes Cobb in February. It’s beautiful, welcoming, well kept, and well landscaped. It’s a nice place to visit, especially outside in the courtyard. Everyone has been very good, very professional, and very welcoming to my family, too. No one is allowed inside, and I am glad that they have strict COVID precautions, but the staff has been very gracious about allowing us to see my father through Zoom once or twice a week, as well as outside visits. I like the amenity of their virtual visits. He’s even able to watch his normal worship via Zoom on Sunday mornings, which is a great social opportunity for him. It’s expensive to stay there, but it’s invaluable to have him in that place and getting the care he needs now. They need to lower their daily rate or offer subsidies or grants, even if we’re working-class people.

My dear, dear friend is currently in the rehab portion of the facility. She was on a ventilator for 3 weeks before going to rehab. She is very weak and still having aftereffects of being in an induced coma for 3 weeks. The nursing staff at rehab facility is overworked and not helping her go to the bathroom. AND the worst part is they are leaving her in an adult diaper for hours. Because of COVID, her husband can’t visit and she is getting very discouraged. There is no physical therapists there on the week-ends, so she is sitting in a diaper watching TV. She needs help. What can I do to help her?

Right now, my mother is in rehab at Presbyterian ’cause she broke her hip. So, it’s sort of another type of nursing home. She’s living there, and she’s doing the rehabilitation. She may be there another month; I’m not sure. But when I kinda get an indication from them, how her rehab is doing, ’cause it’s kinda had to start in stages, then I’ll know when she’ll be actually moving out of there. She’s been there since the end of October.
It’s a good facility. I was not able to actually see where she would be staying, because she went from the emergency room to a hospital bed, and once she was finished with her surgery, she’s gotta had to pick a rehab place. They gave me some choices and I did a little bit of research, but I basically just picked one and that’s where she is now. Her care is definitely a 5; she’s got a whole team, nutritionist, occupational therapist; she’s got more than one therapist, she’s got somebody dealing with a wound on her foot, and she gets a doctor visit frequently.
It looks like a housing community, but different set up. There are housings, kinda like condos, and then there’s like one main type building. I guess it’s where some of the patients live. It’s not like one big building like most of the places are. It’s a housing community along with a rehab facility. I think she’s been well-taken cared of. I don’t particularly know about the food. I know she’s eating ’cause, they told me she’s eating, but I don’t know how good the food is.
Right now, Medicare is paying for her stay and her care. I actually looked in to what it would cost to keep her there, but they were very expensive. Instead of like a monthly rent, they had like a daily rent, which was very expensive. We’re talking like $8000 something like that. So, it was just really way out of my league. I know she’s getting great care.
I chose that facility based on their location, and the fact that it was one of them that the hospital recommended. It was one of their recommended lists. At a certain point when you’re in a hospital, they wanna get you out, so you gotta make a decision. So I had to make a decision to get her into a rehab facility, and I had to make a choice, So it wasn’t like a detailed research. I didn’t do any tours, I just basically googled a couple of other places, and I made a decision that I had to.

My dad has been in Powder Springs Nursing & Rehab Center for 6 weeks and has not had 1 shower. We’ve talked 3 times on a shower day and no one would allow him to shower. Dad said that whenever he express his need to shower, he’s told that his name is not on the list; so he returns to his room to uses his sink.
Also, the misinformation, lack of communication from the beginning in regards to his transfer from therapy to long-term-care has been so much confusion. (When, where, if at all, for sure will be, will remain, will change when availability, no plan to change even if a room becomes available as been ongoing). During one of my window-visits, I saw his packed luggage as he waited to be transferred to his new room expected to be more conducive for long-term.
Furthermore, my dad has been inside his room since his admission and sit by the window looking outside. I have been unable to reach the activity director as advised.
NOTE: Last week, during my visitation, the new director introduced herself; I perceive that she would induce a caring and organized culture for this facility. Also, the receptionist and the nutritionist has been very helpful during this difficulty.

Financial Assistance for Nursing Home Care in Marietta, Georgia
Many seniors and their families use some form of financial assistance to help them pay for nursing care. The main options available are Medicare, Medicaid, and veterans benefits. These programs can be complicated, especially when it comes to benefit terms. Below, we give a brief overview of how these programs may be used towards paying for skilled nursing care.
- Medicare: Medicare will typically cover all skilled nursing costs for the first 20 days of one’s stay in a nursing home and a portion of the costs until day 100. After 100 days in a skilled nursing facility, Medicare will not cover any part of the cost of the stay. While this is adequate when short-term care is needed, those in need of long-term care will need to either pay out-of-pocket or use another source of financial assistance.
- Medicaid: Medicaid covers most of the costs of living in a skilled nursing facility for those who qualify. Care, room, and board are covered with no time limit, but residents may be charged for extras like specially prepared food or cosmetic services. Medicaid eligibility standards are strict and complex, so not all seniors are eligible for Medicaid benefits.
- Veterans Benefits: Veterans receiving a VA pension may also be eligible for the Aid and Attendance benefit administered by the VA. Aid and Attendance is a monthly allowance that beneficiaries may use to pay for their long-term care, including skilled nursing care.
If these options aren’t available to you, check if your loved one has long-term care insurance or contact your Area Agency on Aging to ask about any local financial assistance programs for seniors.
