Both my parents have been at this facility and they both thought the care was good. They really liked their therapist. Would recommend this place if you need a nursing home.

My aunt has lived here for two years and love the way she is treated. Lots of positive things seem to be happening and have gotten to recently know the manager. Good people. My aunt loves the food. I have tasted it and it was ok but better than what I expected. Not everyone loves being in a nursing home but this one seems to be good.

Staff were amazing. Clean but older building. My mom loved her physical therapist and CNA.

Started off ok, relieved that family member would receive good care. Wrong...ended up with pneumonia, bleeding, bladder infection, dehydration, wrong meds, & worst discharge ever. Only changed when I advocated for family member. A month of rehab turned into 3 months of horrible care. Getting better care at home with home health people. Were there a few CNA's that went out of their way, yes. Original social worker, great, but only there a week & gone. Seemed to be a lot of staff turnover & changes, not for the better.

Beware, U.P. had changed. The care is not there. High turn over, what they post as fact for daily staffing is a joke. I can't understand how they get away with it. Room lights stay on for long perikds,of time and no one responses to aid a resident. The employees just go about their business. It's just a job attitude. Lack of upper management standards and presents in the facility. Hot dogSprings are a main meal 3 to 4 times a,week. No diet restrictions for people who have dietary issues. The employee's park in the handicap spots leaving no parking spaces for family. I actually captures a video where there wasn't a staff member to be seen. Anywhere. Oh you could find a few outside on cell phones or in the break room but NO ONE on the floor to provide care. WA state watch dogs really need to address the lack of care in nursing homes. U.P is not alone. Trust me after 5 different locations I have ever come to understand nusing homes are making money and are not in the business to provide love ones a safe caring ho.e away from home. It breaks my heart.

My 91 year old father was placed at UPCC after a fall that broke his ankle. After a week in the facility we were called into a meeting and told that he was just so weak and that he needed to try harder. He kept saying he was just to tired to even eat. two days later he was rushed to the hospital with a severe UTI and a high fever. He ended up with surgery to place a Foley bag for urination. No one ever took his temperature or looked at his soiled bed cloths to see he had blood in his urine. He very easily could have died. When I called and asked for an explanation I was told the nurse would call me back. No one ever did.
