Lee Health Skilled Nursing Facility

I was admitted to the Lee Health Park Rehab Center after knee surgery. The first night I cried, not from pain but from the deplorable condition of the room. The bathroom sink had a larger corner section that was broken with raw pressboard showing through. It had been “repaired” clear packing tape. The previous occupant had left electrical items that hadn’t been removed. The room itself was dark and depressing. There were many other things that are too numerous to list, like no private bath & designated shower days, no matter if you needed one sooner. I found out that, upon admission, the reason for my care was listed as General Malaise and not knee therapy. Therapy was a joke & did nothing to improve my situation. Upon discharge the form said I needed Home Healthcare because of my Dementia! I lost it at that & called the doctor, whom I saw for maybe 5 minutes on my first day yet he signed off on the Dementia diagnosis “after his review” of me, that I demanded that be removed, which he did after I threatened a lawsuit if it stayed. I felt total relief after I left. I wouldn’t recommend this place to my ex-husband for care! Don’t be fooled by the “Health Park” name like I was.

Unfortunately, my Mom is back in rehab exactly one year after breaking her hip. This time she fell and broke her collarbone. Many of the staff remember her. Two members of the staff have really stood out. The young lady, Jackie, who answers the main phone is super friendly and very helpful. Excellent customer service! The Nurse named Tatiana is fantastic! Super polite, super personable, and super professional. Tatiana is great with my Mom. She is making a difficult situation easier to navigate.

This is the absolute worst hospital. For a week she’s been sent home with “normal pregnancy pains” but bleeding, unable to walk because the baby is low and pushing on her pelvis. 4 days past her due date, in early labor. “Here is a muscle relaxer. Go home and rest” Don’t go here.
