West Tennessee Skilled Nursing

My grandmother was here for care from the hospital. She loved it and so did the family. All the nurses and therapist were caring and friendly. My Grandmother can be a bit of a handful at times, but the employees continued to help and care for her without hesitation. Transitional care isn't like a nursing home , they are trying to TRANSITION the patient from 24/7 hospital care to going home and living independently as possible. So they "made" my grandmother start doing things on her own (like she would at home) but with close by assistance. I would use West Tennessee Transitional again if the need arises.

Oh my, I can attest to the above mentioned reviews and all the negatives about this facility are dead on! The care, or actually lack of care took my mother from a pretty healthy lady in need of physical therapy back tk the hospital in ICU! The care was non- existent and the nursing staff even has to purchase their one supplies ( blood pressure cuffs, thermometer, etc) Unless you are a young, healthy, persons who can conduct all the ADL’s on your own I would not even think about this place!! Awful!!!

My MIL was in this facility for a month after a hip fracture. The personnel is very nice for the most part, but are overworked and understaffed and do not have the time needed to care for residents appropriately. It is a nice, relatively new, clean facility, with private rooms. From the day we arrived until the day we left, there were lights in the room that did not work and the window shade was broken. The food is horrible. We were told when she checked in that if she didn't like what was on the menu for a meal that she could request something different, but this was never done. No one discussed the menu with her (or us) and whether she wanted to choose something from the alternate menu. There were activities on the schedule but unless family was there to take her she didn't have a way to get there (with the exception of one day when she went to bingo). Worst of all, she had very poor medical care there, with recurring infections in her hip incision and other issues which were neglected by the medical staff. She finally had to be re-admitted to the hospital for a week and is now in a different facility which is as different as day and night from Transitional Care. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

I was in Transitional Care for 7 days. I Don't have one complaint. The caretakers were wonderful and right there when I needed them. So grateful for their care.

My Mother was a inmate in 2016. I can attest to the negative reviews! The only bright spot was the physical therapy. She had very dry eyes and I provided the drops her eye doctor recommended yet they always had an excuse for not using them. She ended up with a scratched cornea and lost the sight in her left eye.
