Awesome place for care

Terrible practice. My grandfather was staying at the Carolton, he had a terrible experience. The nurses are nasty, they don’t care about the patients. It’s ridiculously understaffed and the ownership does not seem to care. If you care about the well being of your family I strongly recommend you choose a different facility.

To the entire staff at the Carolton Chronic and Convalescent Hospital, We want to express our deepest gratitude for the professionalism and care you showed our beloved Sam Palmer as he transitioned. Over the years, the kindness and love you showed him did not go unnoticed. It was an absolute comfort having your team’s support even when we were not always able to physically be present. It brought us a sense of relief to know there were people who looked out for him as their own. We are forever grateful. Thank you and may God continue to bless you all. With love, The Family of Sam Palmer

First day had high Hope's for this facility to take care of my physical therapy needs. As the evening progresses I'm still without surgery pain medication waiting until 8¹/²hrs later. Also on a high calorie diet heads up I'm going to bed hungry honestly very disappointed ! January 1st 2021 nurse Anna who was taking care of my blood pressure on that evening and bedtime I asked where is my night time long lasting insulin she then replies we don't have it at 12:05 a.m. technically January 2nd she says doctor Miller did not put in the order just like my pain meds he never ordered it. Saturday January 9th 2021 I was told by Elaine they didn't have any of my morphine 15 mg medication from surgery they had a higher dose so if I was to take the higher dose I would be left in bed lethargic because it was just too much for me also would make me nauseous and throw up. Because of the higher dose I had to take because they didn't have the lower dose I technically could not do any physical therapy missing my appointment. I was In severe pain and discomfort 13 and a 1/2 hours later is when my medication finally came in, By then it took about 3 days to catch up on my Correct dosage to finally have pain management under control this was a huge setback for those 3 days Because it then set me back on physical therapy Again which this is why I'm here. Friday afternoon January 16th 2021 started feeling a lot of pain in my legs again started feeling like I wasn't on the right medication for my neuropathy I also realized that I had those little floatys in my right eye Now the last time this happened to me it was because I wasn't on the correct medication It's now Saturday late afternoon in my legs were in severe pain again my nurse at the time his name is Bernie I asked him Bernie am I on lyrica he went to check the nurses station to find out that I was not on lyrica I was on pregabalin So somehow my order was changed so we both went to the nurses station to find out it was actually the pharmacy who switched it over to pregabalin With out consulting with me the patient or the nurse on hand. Bernie immediately called the pharmacy to put in the correct order lyrica So I then waited again about 6 and a 1/2 to 7 hours for my lyrica to come in causing me lots of pain and great discomfort again. It seemed to be a crazy facility and chaotic every night with staff only to find out the staff was screaming in the hallway Lisa Lisa Lisa we're missing a patient did you see her after the confusion of nurses running down the Hall they finally located the patient that was missing who happen to be down the Hall in another Room confused! This place seems to have no oversight clearly in regards to all the mis medical mishaps and Fortunately finding the patient who was not in harm safely still within the facility North wing now I'm not sure how much this is on the regular in this facility but I can tell you in16 days I went for approximately a total of 4 to 5 days of severe pain and discomfort. Proper pain medication with management is essential for an amputated foot which is quite painful for anyone who unfortunately has had the surgery but hopefully Will not come to the Carlton for short term physical therapy. The physical therapist for ot and PT are phenomenal they work with you very closely and do not push you more then your body is capable off unfortunately it's the facility And the 1 particular aid Adleen who are not professional the nurses were fantastic especially Bernie and Jane and many others except for Dr Miller who did not over see or follow up on proper medications on myself and possibly many others who can't speak for themselves because they are elderly here for long term care as well. I will also say Lisa from dietary is the boss and does not follow up with trays to make sure everything is good with your meal or particular special diet with no quality check on trays that arrive some times taking to long to correct the problem or mistakes unfortunately. Personally I had to complain to the state about their blaiten disregard of medication!
