Avamere Rehabilitation of Oregon City

Too of high staff:client ratio although most of them seemed nice and pleasent, they just seem to have too many people to care for if they had even a few less clients they could have time to spend getting to know the entire person which might help staff and client alike . Poor treatment from the house Dr. He might try working on improving his bedside. And even though I have my own team of Dr.s working with me and managing my care and medications very very carefully house and sent standing orders for my care & medications Dr. attempted and then did change standing orders and medication that had been closely monitored by several Dr's the entire experince with this medical house Dr was frustrating and extremely upsetting. The food didn't seem appealing to me at all. As for quality I can't say since it was not real inviting, and I could not get myself to eat much. I was lucky my my husband was close by and brought me in food. And then had concerns about the cleanliness of my surroundings......I had a shared bathroom with several other rooms , the toilet went most of the with dried fecses (poop spray on toilet seat) on it, my husband noticed it as did I and staff was told and housekeeping was supposed to come clean it. Again I think if staff wasn't so over worked it wouldn't of been an issue, as well maybe the staff taking a client to the toilet should be in charge of clean up instead of waiting for housekeep or at least regular cleaning schedule (more than once a shift especially when several people are sharing a bathroom. ) Basically I cried from frustration and pain most of my stay and was packed and ready to leave at least once a day. (even if it was AMA)Which could of lead to insurance not paying the $4000 a day bill.) I would suggest not using any Avamere facilites ( because they would all have the same basic company policies therefore the same basic client/paitent treatment) Especially if you are putting someone might have trouble advicating strongly for themselves and have a strong outside support system close by for outside asisstance. I had a struggle and I in my 40's educated in social service's and the medical and care giving fields. As well my husdand and children and friends that were all only 3 miles away and where able to come a check on me and bring items I need several times a day.
