    Unsafe care despite compassionate staff

    I would not recommend this place. My family experienced persistent maintenance and cleanliness failures (leaky roof, no hand sanitizer, blood on a handheld speaker), poor responsiveness to call buttons, and dangerous delays in care (a 2-day delay starting antibiotics for pneumonia; antibiotic-resistant infection). Administration felt untrustworthy and profit-driven, and we saw neglectful/disrespectful incidents (my mother's hair was shaved without consent). That said, Dr. Miller, caregiver Jane, and several nurses were kind and skilled, and the rehab team genuinely helped some residents regain mobility - but excellent staff can't erase the facility's unsafe, inconsistent basic care.

    About Colonial Care Center

    Colonial Care Center, also called Colonial Care Rehabilitation, sits in Long Beach, CA, and stays open every day from 9 in the morning until 9 at night, which gives people plenty of time to visit or get care when they need it, and the staff includes general physicians like Dr. Janice Lau, Dr. Jason Fletcher, Dr. Eun Byun, and Dr. Daniel Kwon, all with about 25 years of experience taking care of folks, so people can feel comfortable knowing they're with people who have seen a lot and know what they're doing. The center has skilled nursing services, sub-acute care, and different types of rehabilitation, with physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, and respiratory therapy offered right there, and if someone needs help with things like back pain, arthritis, or more serious issues like cervical spine myelopathy, degenerative disc disease, nerve root injury, or plexus disorders, they work with those problems too. They also help with general medical concerns like cough, viral infections, and menstrual disorders, plus there's a program for those looking to quit tobacco, which isn't something every center has nearby. Colonial Care Center does what it can to make people feel secure and comfortable, creating a peaceful environment where residents and visitors don't need to worry about the basics, and the staff pays attention to the unique needs of each person so the right kind of help is given, whether someone's there for a short respite stay or needs a longer time for recovery. The facility includes amenities meant to help residents improve and feel at home, but details on which amenities are in place change from time to time, so it's always worth looking around when you visit, and with their range of specialized and basic services, most people find there's something useful here if they're looking for support in a caring and secure community.
