Review Summary
The following is an AI generated summary of the reviews of the community from across the web.
Reviews of Cedars Healthcare Center show a mixed range of experiences from residents, family members, and staff. Some highlight the compassionate and attentive care provided by the staff, praising their dedication and the positive atmosphere they create. Residents and their families have expressed gratitude for the loving care, involvement in activities, and the clean and welcoming environment.
However, there are significant concerns raised about management, particularly with the new ownership, which has been described as unresponsive to multiple requests to address problems within the facility. Issues such as theft of personal items, poor communication, and inadequate staffing have been mentioned. One review specifically criticizes the facility for being poorly managed, alleging neglect that led to the death of residents during a staffing crisis.
There are also complaints about the facility's handling of employee matters, including refusal to pay a former employee and ignoring communication attempts. Another review points out the difficulty in contacting residents, suggesting a lack of efficient systems for family members to reach their loved ones.
Despite these criticisms, there are also stories of improvement under new management, with efforts to remodel the facility and reopen services that had been closed. Some residents have seen a complete turnaround in their opinion of the center, attributing positive changes to effective leadership.
In summary, while Cedars Healthcare Center has been praised for its caring staff and efforts to create a welcoming community, there are serious concerns about management responsiveness, staff behavior, and overall facility management that potential residents and their families should consider.
