Our family’s experience with Autumn Leaves was devastating. On most visits, we witnessed our elderly mother in an unconscious state nearly 80% of the time. Nurses routinely dismissed this, saying she was simply “tired.” In reality, she was being administered PRN medications without our consent, leaving her heavily sedated. They have refused to release her medical records with his a violation of the state of Illinois law. During a surprise visit at 10 p.m., we found her in such poor condition that she had to be rushed to the hospital, where she remained for seven consecutive days. Not once did we receive a call from Peace Igbinovia ,, the Executive Director/Director of Nursing, during this crisis. Family concerns were consistently ignored, and promised care services were never delivered. The facility is grossly understaffed, and the competence level of the nursing staff is dangerously insufficient. Integrity — or rather, the lack of it — is evident and was even openly acknowledged by the Executive Director aas she noted that several of her nurses were dishonest and unethical, yet she refused to hold them accountable. . Medical professionals urged us to remove her immediately and seek alternative care. We did, and she is now thriving and receiving excellent, compassionate care elsewhere. Families deserve honesty and safety — Autumn Leaves, under its current leadership, provided neither. If you care…you will look elsewhere. Your loved one deserves better.
