    I can't do anything about this other than leave a review to warn others. My mother was here after a…read moresevere stroke that left her left side paralyzed and with aphasia, incontinence, and confusion. Let's start with the positives: Most of the nurses are incredible and are doing the best they can. There were a select few nurses that helped my my mother bathe and brushed her hair ad put it up in a ponytail to prevent further matting that occurred when she was in the ICU. Now for everything else. Within the first 48 hours of arriving, a nurse left a tourniquet on my mother's left arm for at least two hours. Not only could we not assess if this did any damage because her left side was already suffering from palsy due to the stroke, but it left an awful mark that I'm sure hurt. I asked them to document this incident but after looking at her medical records it looks like no one did that. Throughout her stay, I could tell when things were wrong. I would ask for a test to be run for, say, a UTI, and it took so much pushing and several days of my mother grimacing and white-knuckling the rail to get a test done at all, and then hours for antibiotics to be administered after results were back. The communication here is God awful. My mother was mostly deaf, and somehow it either wasn't in her chart or no one was reading it, because no one knew until I asked them to put a sign up in her room that said "hard of hearing." They lost her hearing aids, also, which certainly didn't help. Some nurses weren't aware of when she had infections or even that her left side was paralyzed. My mother's insurance stopped covering her stay at Landmark after about two/three weeks, and would not cover any more unless someone at Landmark said there were complications with her. No complications were reported, despite her developing MRSA pneumonia and having to be 24/7 restrained. The administration did their best to push her out of Landmark to a nursing home, and ended up not restraining her when they should have because in order for someone to be sent to a nursing home they have to have been out of restraints for at least 48 hours. My mother decannulated often due to the discomfort of the trachea and her lack of understanding as to the harm it caused. She needed 24/7 eyes on her, and they often had a nurse sitting at the door, but due to understaffing she couldn't always be there. My mother pulled out of her restraints countless times, or they weren't tight enough so she could pull herself up enough to take the cannula out. This contributed to her developing tracheal stenosis, a narrowing of her trachea, which caused her death due to acute respiratory failure the day she was transferred out of Landmark. Suffice to say, I don't recommend anyone stay at Landmark if you have serious issues. The administration simply does not care about you, and the nurses are too overwhelmed to do anything. If you have absolutely no choice in where your loved one ends up, and you HAVE to choose Landmark, I IMPLORE you to spend as much time with them as possible and to be a fierce and aggressive advocate for their health. You have to become an expert in their care whether you like it or not to make sure things are being done right.

    They were very dedicated and professional. The hospital was short staffed, but the care my husband…read morereceived was good! They had a motivated respiratory team and my husband made great strides getting off the ventilator and in getting his trach removed. Lakesha and Mrs. Hunt went over and beyond what was expected of them and I was very impressed and pleased by the services we received and witnessed. Thanks to all of you!

It is a nice hospital but they do get a lot of taxpayer's money so it should be nice. The business office is just down right disgusting...and because of them I would have to recommend if you have insurance then go to St. Mary's.
