Tempe Post Acute

The reviews here on google are fake! Check Yelp if you want to see their real reviews. This place is HORRIBLE! My father was here for one day before I checked him out for his own safety. I went to visit my father and found him laying there in dried urine. I pressed the call light and it literally took an hour for someone to come. I had to clean everything up myself. They gave him a wheelchair that had someone else’s dried feces all over it! The room phone had dried blood on the side of it. 4 patients share one toilet that did not work! So feces began to pile up. Just walking the halls here you can see call lights being left on for hours and patients literally screaming for assistance. When I voiced my concerns to the staff I was told there was no one in charge! So I spoke to a nurse who was very rude and told me she had already clocked out for the day so it wasn’t her problem. I later learned of the open cases of elder abuse this place has. If you love your family member, DO NOT send them here. There are much better places nearby.

I believe reviews are essential for providing valuable insights into a facility, helping others make informed decisions about the care and services offered. My father was admitted to Tempe Post Acute on October 11, 2023. I want to express my appreciation for the hardworking nurses and CNAs at this facility, as they truly are the backbone of its operations. Tempe Post Acute is a facility of decent size, extending its services to patients from Yuma and other cities. However, I must highlight some concerns about the overall cleanliness of the facility and persistent odors in the hallways. Proper ventilation may be the cause if certain cleaning agents are causing these issues. During my father's stay, there was a large dog freely roaming, which could be unsettling, and this was not even for a blind patient. Additionally, I observed a lack of housekeeping staff, with nurses and CNAs handling trash removal. Each room in the facility accommodates two patients in a room, sharing a single bathroom for two rooms. This setup can lead to challenges with maintaining cleanliness, especially when four different patients are utilizing the same bathroom. One notable issue was the absence of doctor visits during my father's stay. Despite requesting an ultrasound for his swollen left leg, there was a delay in follow-up. When the ultrasound results returned negative, we expressed our ongoing concerns, only to be informed that a doctor wouldn't be available until Monday. Faced with this situation, my siblings and I opted to take our father to the hospital for immediate attention, as waiting until Monday seemed impractical. Regrettably, when we informed Tempe Post Acute about our decision, they indicated they wouldn't readmit my father if we left willingly. This raised concerns about the facility's management and its commitment to customer care. We took our father to the hospital at 1:30 AM on Saturday, October 21st, 2023. According to the hospital ultrasound, he had several blood clots in his left leg, including a few in his lungs. The hospital staff agreed with our decision to bring him here, stating that waiting until Monday would have resulted in a worse condition for my father. I advise prospective residents and their families to thoroughly assess the cleanliness and overall conditions of Tempe Post Acute or any nursing facility before making a decision. It's crucial to ensure that the chosen facility can provide the level of care and cleanliness your loved ones deserve.

I had high hopes for this place. My 85 year old father-in-law ended up in the hospital with a broken rib. He was sent here for PT before returning to his permanent care facility. In their defense, he does have Stage 5 Parkinson's but he does have some mobility. At TPA, other than the one hour of PT (which was NOT daily), he was confined to his bed. They used a lift to get him in and out of bed instead of working with him to help himself get out of bed. They did the same for the bathroom; just put a Depends on him and wouldn't let him shuffle his way to the bathroom. Very disappointed. I know they have a lot to do, but they weren't helping him. They were hindering him. And, he wasn't give his CPAP for multiple nights so he had very little sleep and ended up in the ER again. At that point, we decided to move him to his normal facility and set up PT and OT there. Just one night of having his CPAP back he is back to normal. While he can't move much, at least he's at his normal place now that encourages movement with people that want to help him.
