    I toured GSH last August. I was impressed with the sales director and the facilities. My mom moved…read morein mid-September 2025. The staff was friendly and seemed to take good care of my mom, Dec. 3 that changed. I looked at video from the camera in my mom's room and saw two aids throw the blanket off my mom and force her to get in her wheelchair, telling her it was time to go to bed (they had things to do). My mom kept telling them no and to leave her alone, but they still forced her to her wheelchair and then to bed. She was bruised up and down her arm and wrist on the inside and outside of her arm. I showed the video to the executive director and the wellness director. I also showed the video to hospice. They both reported the incident to the state. The two employees were released from their job. THEN, on Jan. 3 I check the camera and see my mom lying on the floor. I called the wellness director and told her. I immediately drove to GSH. In the meantime, I looked at the videos, and I saw the caregiver rolling my mom out of the restroom and see my mom fall out of her wheelchair. The caregiver had not put my mom far enough back in her chair, she was sitting on the edge of her chair, her feet were dragging and her feet got hung up and caused her to be flipped out of her chair. (the facility never as the footrest on the wheelchairs). My mom is crying out "I hit my knee." The care giver never showed any concern, compassion, apology or sense of urgency. My mom told the caregiver twice, "get someone to help get me up" and both times the caregiver raises her voice and says, "HOLD ON". On the video no one asks my mom if she is hurt or in pain, they just get her up and put her in her recliner. When I get there, I put ice on her right knee she fell on. The caregiver who was pushing the wheelchair comes in the room, no apology, just "she didn't fall". The next morning, I met with the executive director and showed her the video of my mom falling out of the chair. I told her the caregiver showed no remorse, compassion, concern or sense of urgency. All she had to say was "we can't teach compassion." There was no concern, apology or compassion from the director. If can't get compassion from the executive director, there will be no consequences for staff who does not show compassion. The executive director never apologized to me or my mom for what happened to her. There are other things I had issues with, but those are the main issues. I feel like if you have a loved one who is relatively independent, they will be just fine, but if they begin showing signs of dementia or needing more assistance things get a little more difficult for the resident. GSH says they can care for those with dementia/memory issues, but most staff members are not trained on how to redirect the resident or calm them. When my mom started having some issues with dementia, I was getting calls almost daily telling me I needed to come up there. Most of the staff members are very caring and love their residents. The ones who do not seem to be in management positions. This is sad. Wherever a family chooses to place their loved one, I highly suggest installing cameras in their room. This protects your loved one and staff and gives some piece of mind. Links to videos of events: https://youtu.be/ShGbRjL23dA https://youtu.be/zuVHu4RNqaU https://youtu.be/-F-FqiiQv5k

    Care quality is horrible. If your loved one has ANY illness do not take them here. Their staff is…read moreNOT trained. Do NOT BE FOOLED- they have one trained person who is there 8-5...the rest of the staff may have a hour or two of training and they are the ones giving meds to your loved one. Hopefully you won't need the only trained person before or after 8-5. Don't schedule a tour- just show up and see what really happens!!! They know how to put lipstick on a pig...

    My Mother was a resident at this facility for several years. It was more of a party facility rather…read moreassisted living. Prior to moving Mother, she was legally blind. Despite the staff being informed repeatedly that she had severe vision problems she was rarely escorted to & from the dining room that required several hallways & an elevator. When she had to begin using a wheelchair she still did not receive assist. I could count on one hand how many times she was assisted with a bath. She was in her late 90's!! When it came time to administer pills the nurse would many times leave them on the kitchen counter if Mother was in the bathroom. Many times I found her pills on the floor or still sitting on the counter. When I quit doing her laundry I found they had done it & stacked the clean laundry on top of the soiled laundry in the basket. She could not see to distinguish between clean & dirty laundry. The list goes on. If your loved one needs assistance this is not the place for them to be.
