Good Samaritan Health Care Center

MNMLB

Good Samaritan Health Center is a very good place to be! My husband has been there several times for therapy, He is now a permanent resident there. They have lots of activities. They just took them to the Yakima fair. My husband is very happy there. He gets along with most of the residents and staff. (But as we all know it does not matter where you are not going to get along with everyone.) He was a roommate and they get along most days. The stuff is very nice there. The only thing my husband doesn't like is the food there. I think if they would use some seasoning like Mrs Dash they resident might enjoy the food more. My mom was also there and love being there.

I'm a little disappointed in some of the care that mom's been getting at Good Samaritan Health Care Center. First of all, she developed a terrible rash because they weren't changing her enough, and now she's developed another kind of rash and they don't seem to be too concerned about it. Mom seems to be pleased with the rehab therapy. I am just not thrilled with the day-to-day care.

My dad is at Good Samaritan Health Care Center. It is a great facility. They are very helpful and accommodating. The food is good, and it is what it is. The staff is very nice and comforting. You can ask them anything you want. If they don't know the answer, they will find somebody else that can help you better. They have yarn activities, movie nights, and a bunch of other activities.

I have been visiting a friend for quite awhile in this facility. My friend there doesn’t eat much because the food is so bad. The shared room they occupy is not very clean and it is quite small. However, my experience with some of the staff is what I find very disappointing. As I was leaving the other evening and my friend was laying down in the bed I noticed their leg was bleeding. Blood was running down the leg and pooling on the floor. I went to the nurses station where three of them were talking and told them about the situation. They looked at me and one told me to go find a specific nurse that handled that patient and went back to talking. I finally found the nurse ( who was busy with her work) and she came quickly to take care of the patient. I would never allow a loved one to come to this facility.

Good Samaritan is the worst nursing home in the valley. They don't care about their clients at all. Everyone in there is inept, and unable to care for anyone but themselves. My grandfather has been in their "care" for about 6 months and his health has done nothing but decline. They stopped doing physical therapy because it's too "risky" with Covid. Now he can't even stand up on his own, or hardly feed himself thanks to their garbage help. If you want your loved one to go in to a nursing home to watch them deteriorate while you're powerless to do anything about it, or watch them put your loved one in their bed like a rag doll, then Good Samaritan is the perfect fit for you and you're loved one.

not to happy

I have/had a relative staying at good samaritan in yakima wa. It is clean and didn't have the usual smell that tends to go with care facilities. My problem with the place is that they are not honest (upper management staff). My family member didn't pay enough because he/she didn't require enough care for the higher pay. I was told flat out that the state is requiring him/her to move to a lesser care facility. A total lie. They refuse to Communicate any information about Dr's appointments or even for what they are about. My family member fell while going to the dr, walking by himself and fell. No call. When confronted I was told that they called, another lie. I was shocked when I saw his black and blue face and legs.
