Horrible place to have such kind staff. If you really care about your loved ones please don’t use the facility. They are. very professional with communication skills and that’s it. They will let your loved one lay there and do nothing for them!! All I’m saying is when the hospital tells you they have done nothing to care for your loved one that is very sad and wrong . Staff even have kids at the nursing station guess they are the ones being taken care of very in appropriate!

worked there a few times, it wasn’t the best but I didn’t complain, BUT when I told them I would have to leave a little early due to my child’s schools situation. It was a PROBLEM I let the nurse know at 4am when I got a call!! I got up a did all my work then was told I was working another hall as well. So all that had to be done too, I did that all by myself, helped with breakfast, and got my people up once again with no help. By the time I left I think it was 6:30am. I only left 30 mins before time to get off . As I made it to Circle K, across the street. i got a call from the supervisor or administrator, idk who it was. They were so rude and told me I would never be hired back! I am very professional, but by this time I was not because the lady was so rude to me. I ended up telling her about the facility which she did not care. I was very upset because I never complained about anything in the facility, until she kept saying how I would never work for them again. Talking about me, how I work, an how unprofessional I was. So all my words were unfiltered after that, and so were hers!! The facility was so nasty. Their linen and trash barrels were not cleaned they had poop all in the bottom of them an they smelled so bad. The facility had a strong smell of urine an poop all down the halls. There were ROACHES everywhere!!!!! Crawling all on the walls, doors, floors, in the residents refrigerators, and on the tv’s ect. On top of that I worked the halls that I had BY MYSELF. ANDDDDDDDD THE WORKERS WERE sitting outside SMOKING WEED WITH THE RESIDENTS more than once cause i seen it quite often while being there.. but all of the rude unprofessional behavior with me because i got all my work done and left 30 mins early. I was trying to be so sweet an professional but I would never work there again!

This objective review is based on our personal experiences at the Bradford. We had a resident at this facility about a month ago. Saddly we should have read the reviews and spoke to families with loves at the facility currently & or recentely. I observed the staff at the Bradford to be nasty, lazy and disrespectful. During our family member discharge meeting the nurse manager informed me that the therapist (s ) have to see other patients. Mind you no one was held hostage and everyone present was over the age of 21. Furthermore she choose to ignore our family member by only asking the family if they have any questions as opposed to also asking if the Bradford resident has any questions and or concern. This action speaks volume to the attitude of the Bradford staff and mangementment. This manager called me cognitively impaired. This is not true. I was shocked, appalled and dismayed. Also during the discharge meeting the social worker consumed valuable time repeatedly talking about her family and her education. Who cares ! We took off work for a discharge meeting in regard tobour loved one. - No one else. Pleaae throughly due your honework. And remove your family member promply, if nessary.
