First, I will say the RE-HAB FLOOR was GREAT when I worked at Parklane West and my Mother stayed there in 2004 and she was very pleased ...here is the rest of my review... I worked at Parklane West from 2002-2003 on the long- term care unit. I would NEVER let someone I loved stay there. It looks great but the staff was un-caring and burned out. There was a clique of CNA's that ran the floor so team-work was non-existant. So they were constantly short-staffed, and over-worked. I saw things like CNA's banging on the table if a resident fell asleep in the dining room waiting for Breakfast, a CNA that literally draped her resident over the bed-rail so she could change her brief, CNA,s giving showers at 530am so they could get their showers done before breakfast. I loved it when I got sent to the re-hab floor because they were professional and caring there. And while I had never been ""fired from a facility"" I was glad when I was let go because of my complaining and ""personality differences"" with the staff. This makes me so sad because Parklane West is home to AMERICA's heros from WWII and Vietnam..and they deserve better. I would love for someone to go in there undercover and blow the doors off that place. That is how I felt then..I hope it has improved but I doubt it. I too would give this place NO STARS
