Caring staff, understaffed and underpaid
I was impressed by the clean, professional AHC facility, friendly admissions team (Holly/Hope), great rehab and PT (especially Logan Hays), whirlpool/therapy rooms, dining area, outdoor activities and public Wi-Fi - when staff are available patients get good care. But the place is understaffed: meds are often late and call lights go unanswered; nurses and CNAs do their best but are stretched thin. Pay is shockingly low (environmental staff underpaid; nurses only about $4/hr more than McDonald's starting wage) and management bonuses tied to cutting costs show the company doesn't prioritize staff wellbeing. Because of those systemic issues I would avoid this facility despite the hardworking, professional front-line staff.
