Lorien Bulle Rock

First impressions were that Lorien Bulle Rock was clean and well maintained. I had my husband transferred here from another rehab that was absolutely filthy and run down. He had back surgery and it was felt that he would benefit from therapy in a rehab center. The first few days went well, but the weekend went straight downhill. After speaking to my husband on the phone, he wasn't making much sense. I got there to find him in bed, unresponsive. I ran out to find one of the techs to find out when he was last checked on and if they had taken his blood pressure. He told me he looked in on him, but he was sleeping so he didn't take his pressure. I asked where his nurse was and he pointed down the hallway. I ran down and explained that he had been dehydrated and his blood pressure would drop significantly, could she please come check. She smiled and told me that she was not HIS nurse, she was at the other end of the hallway. I could not believe it! I ran down to find his nurse and I felt that everyone's reactions were very slow. I asked that an ambulance be called and was told that they needed to talk to his doctor first. It felt like no one was reacting until my step daughter showed up in her police uniform before the call was made. He was transported to the hospital where they found him so dehydrated that his kidneys had shut down. On top of that, Bulle Rock had given him pain medication earlier that nearly overdosed him because his kidneys could not process them. He spent a week in the hospital recovering and begged me not to send him back. I've made several attempts to call the admissions director to talk about what happened, but have never received a call back. If you decide to leave someone here, make sure you keep a close eye on them, especially on the weekends when they seem to have a skeleton crew.
