Name change: North Dade Nursing and Rehab…read more This nursing home has gotten somewhat better over time but still needs a lot of improvement. Regardless, I would not place a loved one here and would rather some of my clients be placed anywhere but here, but alas, there is not enough space at others to move them out. This is a last resort for me and also one of the only nursing homes that accepts just about anyone. In fact, it actually looks more like a psychiatric facility than a nursing home. It is a locked down facility, so you are only able to get in and out with a pass code. There is always someone attending to the door to make sure no residents elope. Residents are usually 2 to 4 to a room, depending on the room size and if you pay a private pay. There are activities throughout the day: including church services, and therapy. There's a big dining room and a small patio area for residents to go outside and smoke. The patio area doesn't have any plants or anything though; it's literally a block of concrete with a small tent in the middle for the sun. This facility is also affiliated with Larkin, which has recently gotten into trouble with fraud, among other things. I personally haven't had any issues with staff or any under the table things but am aware that there has been in the past. I have worked personally with Shirelle and Hollie in social services, and they have been absolutely wonderful and have helped with everything I have ever needed. They are a great team! Unfortunately, nurses are constantly leaving; there is a lot of turnover so the rapport I build is always cut short when new staff comes in. Many times residents are left unattended for hours at a time and only get care when you ask for it; even then it takes more than 20 minutes for a nurse to show up. I do believe that they are overwhelmed, but with the amount of residents living there, Medicare/Medicaid, and private pay, they can afford to hire more staff. Even though they are understaffed, if a patient needs help or has gone on themselves, they should be attended to in a timely manner so as not to experience any pungent odors throughout the facility. Sometimes the odors are so strong, I have a hard time staying for more than 15 minutes, I can only imagine for the staff and for the residents how awful it must be.

The Assistance Director on Nursing to me is not caring especially if you call and try to complain how your family member is being treated, this person do not even bother to return calls. The have a Social worker their who says if you have any situations call me, she do not return calls either. The type of food being given be it breakfast or dinner should be monitored half of the time the vegetables is totally dente, some of the meat is uncuttable, I dont understand why would you give ham or turkey meat then give a butter knife for it to be cut, you would think they would pre slice the meat for the residence who have difficulties with the strength in their hands.
