Lauren Hill
I am genuinely appalled that this facility is still in operation. I worked at Pullman Care about six months ago, and my experience there was nothing short of disturbing. The Nurses and CNAs were some of the most negligent and heartless individuals I have ever encountered in healthcare. They routinely ignored residents' needs, refusing to provide basic care if they felt it was inconvenient. Residents were often left sitting in wet, soiled beds for hours, completely disregarded and dehumanized.While still in training, I was forced to take on the responsibilities of multiple CNAs just to ensure residents received the bare minimum of care they deserved. It was physically and emotionally draining, and it was clear the facility operated with little to no accountability.The administration was no better. The current administrator and management team repeatedly ignored serious reports of neglect. Even after multiple visits from the state prompted by complaints, they somehow managed to cover their tracks and avoid consequences. Pullman Care is a dangerous place for vulnerable residents, and it’s shameful that it continues to operate under such conditions.Do not send your loved ones to Pullman Care. They will be neglected, ignored, and treated with complete disregard by nearly every member of the staff. This facility does not provide safe or compassionate care.
