Safety when someone falls

My mom was sitting on her bed and her feet were sliding and would not stop her from falling to her bottom. She bunched the button for someone to help her and it took 15 mins to get there. What if she had hit her head and poured blood? What would 15 mins look like on your site? It does not look good. I thought this place had 24/7 help and the button they use on them works and makes sure you hear them first. I really thought they would have been there within 5 mins. That's an emergency.

Moms bed sheets and cloths washed

My mom has been in Dogwood since [date removed]. Her bed sheets haven't been changed in 2 weeks. Her clothing ,which includes bed pads( which are wet) have been washed once. This isn't except able due to tge amount they charge per month and what was promised us when we excepted the apartment.

Review for Dogwood Forest of Grayson

Dogwood Forest was wonderful. Recommendations from others, visiting and having residents tell us how great it was, the time the staff took to answer all of our questions and address some concerns about our mother's needs and quirks, our ability to visit any time even at night.

Staff Does The Bare Minimum

They very difficult to deal with my father is currently in the hospital with pneumonia because they allowed him to get dehydrated. They do not provide enough fluids to the patients. I feel really bad for the patients that do not have a family member that can take care of them. I would not recommend anybody.

Dogwood Forest of Grayson

I am not pleased with all the policies and procedures that they failed to disclose upfront. There also is a lack of communication between staff members and from the staff to the family. Their brochures and new resident packets don't cover a lot of my questions. They should have better written paperwork to disclose policies and procedures. Dad has been sick with high fevers twice and they have not provided him with meds to alleviate the fevers. I'm paying a lot of money because I thought I would not have to worry ab…
