Major disappointment in this place, my twin brother has been there for two months, they never get him out of bed unless we complain. Very little rehab, only once this week that I know of. Been asking to see or talk with his doctor, Dr. Mossoud, he has not seen my brother this week and has not called me as promised to discuss his condition as promised. I was told he was here the other day when I was here, but he never came to his room. What a waste of money, which is allot, to pay for such poor care. A very unhappy and disappointed brother.

Avante is a Skilled Nursing Facilty, Nursing Home and Rehabilitation center that needs Rehabilitation. Although some of the staff was nice, nice isn't enough when it comes to health care and this care was for my 87 year old dad who I wanted to honor and sending him to this place was like he was taken hostage. It's the actions and actual care and follow through of what you say you're going to do that counts. His one CNA was super nice but she was overextended with patients. No way can one human being tend to so many needy and end of life patients and be there for them and it's just her. There was one particular staff member who threatened me. Maybe one wing of the facility got better care than the other but I'm sorry , on east wing three grown men in one small crammed room with a toilet and a sink and a shared closet is unacceptable especially in end of life care. Not even with adequate room for a family visitor or friends. I was even told oh you can get a better room, never happened. I do not believe nor am convinced that the vibe there was let me love on your loved one more than it was let me get as much money from insurance, Medicare and Medicaid. People pretended my dads care was for his safety and ironically when it was time for his release the situations they said were fall risks , that they cautioned me on not to do were the exact things they didn't help me and forced me to have to take care of such as getting him transportation home and help to my car because I had to wheel him out. This place was a no, nope no go. Do not send your loved one here. Honestly I would not even bring my pet here. So so so sad and the poor people stuck there my heart goes out to them. Sad is an understatement. read more

Skill Nursing facility and rehab. My mother was there for 3 weeks. Discharge is tomorrow and they will still not get her out of bed to use the restroom. They only had her up once a day for breakfast and then rehab had her walk up to 90 feet. Food was absolutely horrible. We tried to get mom to eat the food and then when we were there for dinner and the Salisbury steak was orange we understood more. Absolutely disgusted. Her clothes have gone missing and they continue to keep her in gowns. It is very demoralizing. She was so embarrassed when she told us she had a problem and that she had to poop in a diaper because they would not get her up. The social worker was very short and in a hurry to get discharge done with very little information. Last minute hurry up and get this in place, yet they had 3 weeks to work with me to get everything in order. I would say do not ever send a loved one there. read more

I went to visit my mother today and she was struggling to breathe. Come to see her oxygen was at 66%! No one was monitoring her breathing!! The paramedics had to get her and take her to St. Cloud! HORRIBLE PLACE! If we weren't there my mother could've died!! read more
