Tanglewood Nursing & Rehabilitation

Do not put your loved ones in this place. Staff is unqualified. They do not tend to the patients as caretakers should.

I came into Tanglewood from the hospital late on a Sunday afternoon. There was a miscommunication between the hospital and Tanglewood which resulted in my medications not being applied correctly. I became upset because the night nurse would not take my word that the meds were wrong. Consequently, I left a horrible review of the facility based on an inaccurate first impression. The next day, the Administrator, the Asst. Dir. of Nursing, Dietary Director, and several other staff met with me to address my complaints. My meds were corrected and most of my other concerns were taken care of. I wish I could take my earlier evaluation back because the staff has been kind and supportive and have gone out of their way make my stay a pleasant, productive one. Please ignore my original review as it was based on misinformation.

I was sent here for rehab after congestive heart failure and diabetic issues. I need to regain my physical strength. The PT, OT, and ST folks were great. Some of the professional nursing staff are also great. Unfortunately, the majority of the nursing staff, especially on night shift, were inattentive, disrespectful, and rude. They have no respect for the residents and treat everybody like we are little senile old people on our deathbeds and not worthy of being treated like intelligent adults. I am only here for physical rehab... not skilled care. Also, I am not allowed to have a diabetic or heart healthy diet. I was told that I just have to eat what everybody else eats. There are no alternatives and no choices. I also have been denied access to a bathroom and have to use a commode for my whole stay. Consequently, my room smelled horrible most of the time. There are no alternatives and no choices.

This is a very family orientated place, a lot of good team work, the residents are there priority .
