    • pro They took her for a shower two or three times in the 3 weeks that she was there.
    • pro She didn't change them right away, she took the old sheets off, and didn't come back with new ones for at least 6 hours.
    • pro From the first day she got there (Tuesday) she had been complaining that her mouth and throat were bothering her to the point where she could hardly eat.
    • pro The driver came back to get her, we asked why he didn't leave her with a second oxygen tank and he rolled his eyes, and said he did.
    • pro We immediately requested a meeting with the director and nothing was really solved. It seemed like she just said what we wanted to hear but nothing actually changed.
    • pro The overall facility is a great place, but please please make sure your loved one is properly cared for on the weekends the staff are lazy and are only there for a paycheck.
    • pro Becky, supervisor of discharging, failed to notify any family members. She claimed that my mom was of sound mind, but I guess she forgot to read the medical history of dementia.

    Review

    Life Care Center of New Port Richey has received mixed reviews from individuals who have had loved ones staying at the facility. One reviewer mentioned that the center is very conscious of COVID-19, with regular testing and mandatory protective measures in place. They appreciated being able to see their loved one and found the staff to be helpful and sweet. The cleanliness of the rooms and quality of food were also satisfactory to them.

    However, another reviewer expressed dissatisfaction with their experience at Life Care Center. They claimed that their grandmother, who was on oxygen 24/7, received inadequate care during her three-week stay. She was neglected when it came to personal hygiene and received limited attention from medical professionals. The reviewer also criticized a doctor for unprofessional behavior and a transportation issue that affected their grandmother's appointment.

    In contrast, another individual praised their time at Life Care Center following a stroke two years ago. They found the food to be nutritious and portioned appropriately, with various physical activities available for rehabilitation purposes. The cleanliness of the facility impressed them, and they even had the opportunity to assist in cooking due to their background as a cook. Additionally, they appreciated the attentive and responsive staff.

    A fourth review compared Life Care Center's services favorably with another facility where the individual's wife had a bad experience. At Life Care Center, they found both the facility itself and staff members to be attentive and respectful towards patients. Although they mentioned a slight delay in answering patient calls, they believed that overall, Life Care Center responded well to patients' needs.

    The fifth review voiced some concerns about communication issues when discharging a loved one from Life Care Center. The reviewer claimed that a supervisor failed to notify any family members before discharge, which led to an unfortunate incident shortly after returning home. They felt disappointed by this lack of communication and accountability.

    In conclusion, there is a range of experiences reported by individuals whose loved ones stayed at Life Care Center of New Port Richey. Some reviewers highlighted positive aspects, such as COVID-conscious protocols, attentive staff, and good food. However, there were also complaints about neglecting personal hygiene, unprofessional behavior from a doctor, and communication issues during discharge. It is important for individuals considering this facility to carefully weigh these varied perspectives before making a decision.
