I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

Care staff is nice but RN support is understaffed. Not prepared to care for a patient with acute illness. Doctor visits once a week. Hospital recommended this facility because they said they would transport to chemo and dialysis...the transport coordinator is super, but they transported the patient to a dialysis center downtown when there is a dialysis cent er 2 blocks away....assume some sort of graft or collusion with the dialysis center downtown. Poor after hours care. In some cases unsanitary handling of patien…

I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

I don't recommend this place for anyone. It is an older facility and it has many deficiencies. There isn't always warm water to wash up in the sinks in each of the rooms. There's a constant smell on one side of the building. No matter what they do they can never cover that smell up. They really don't know how to clean. The floors are always dirty. You don't want them doing laundry unless you're okay with them losing the laundry and it ending up the donation pile. The food is not that g…

My mother stayed in Life Care for rehab, and I wasn't that impressed with it at all. It wasn't clean for one thing. I had to tell them when her bed needed to be changed. The people were nice enough, but I felt like I had to go to them. It didn't feel like they were really on top of it. In the dining room, the tablecloths weren't changed enough and maybe the people were sloppier. But I loved their physical therapy department; they were wonderful. There definitely were things I liked, there were p…

I visited this facility

About 6 months ago I taught a middle school leadership class. I had the child write cards and pick flowers to bring the residents of the Life Care Center of Boise. When we arrived the facility appeared top-notch. The Children were nervous at first but once they started talking to the amazing residents they really started having a great time. A few of the residents started crying because they were so happy to have a visitor and someone to talk to. All in all it was an amazing experience for the students, the residen…

I visited this facility

I thought the staff of this facility seemed very informed and the nurses were very nice to the patients, despite some of the patients obvious problems. The secretary's were even nice to me and my other classmates. The facility seemed very equipped to handle nursing home activities and emergencies. They offered a "red alert" system just in case a patient was in dire need of help or resuscitation. The halls were wide enough for two or three wheelchairs (the main mode of transportation there) to go side…

I am a past client of this provider

My Mom was in this facility for a month after a hospitalization. The "hands-on" employees were caring and considerate, but the facility was drastically understaffed. While "shopping" for a nursing/rehabilitation facility, this one was suggested bu the hospital. Overpromised and underdelivered sre 2 words that come to mind for this facility. Basically, the patients were fed and rolled back to their room to sit alone, with the exception of a 20 minute physical therapy session every other day. The …
