“I’ve had mixed experiences at Ghent Rehabilitation & Nursing Center. Unfortunately, a lot of the nurses haven’t always been the most attentive or helpful. However, I do want to recognize one staff member who truly stands out Drew. She is an amazing, hardworking young woman who always goes the extra mile for the residents. She stays on top of everything and handles her responsibilities with so much…”

“Don’t put your loved ones here unless you want them neglected! Many employees drinking alcohol and smoking weed on the job day and night shift!! Most aides will also verbally abuse residents especially on unit 1. The DON is never in the building when they should be either rather be smoking cigarettes or getting coffee”
