My daughter is on medicare at the age of 35 years old. She is terminal with A lung disease and Hospice was called in. We determined that she needed 24-hour care and so Hospice got her into a nursing home till she passes. The nursing home is called
The Rehabilitation & Health Center of Gahanna
Rehabilitation Center
Address: 5151 N Hamilton Rd, Columbus, OH 43230
Phone:(614) 337-1066
The halls smelled like urine so strong. I was about ready to cry just taking her to a place like this to die.
I had made my daughter a blanket and when it was bedtime she laid on top of the bed and used that blanket to cover up with. Jammie was scared and lonely so that's how she slept for 2 nights. We came 2 days later and decided to make the room look more like home so we took her to get new bedding. When we returned and moved the furniture the floors were dirty and when I pulled the chain to turn on the light above her bed and dust came flying out. I went and got a broom and dustpan and cleaned the floors. I ask for a mop, but they did not offer to get me one. I wanted to get the new things we purchased on her bed. I started to remove the worn out comforter from the bed, and a big pad that they put under residents was there with dried blood all over it. There was no sheet on the bed just a flat sheet and that pad...I was so up with this. I didn't notice the white cotton blank had dried urine on it till later. I was just so upset to see that dried blood and knew my daughter had been laying on this bed.
I took it up to the nurses station and first a young aid took it from me. She asks if I wanted to talk to the nurse and tell them and I told her yes someone needs to know. She took the bed pad and got rid of it. The rest of the linen and blankets from the bed I had sat outside the door by Jammie's room (39B).
Before I left I told the nurse at the main station for Jammie's floor that I wanted to fill out a complaint and instead they directed me to talk with the head nurse over her floor?
They knew she was coming and they could have at least given my daughter a clean bed to die it. Not one nurse told me they would do anything to correct this situation or even find out who didn't do their job.
Please investigate this place and get my daughter out of there and find her a decent place to die. No one should be at this place till they get some properly trained people and care about the people they are taking care of. Young, Old it doesn't matter no one should be treated like this. Just because these people are on medicare doesn't mean they should get any less care than the ones who aren't.
Please, dear God gets my daughter out of this place. It's no wonder there rating is 48 I think it should be less. They could have told me they would investigate and let me write up a complaint....
