  Unfortunately my 22 year old niece needed rehab from a broken arm and leg. 2 days at Shelton Lakes and it was horrible to the point where she had to be rushed out of there via ambulance back to the hospital. My niece was assigned a male cna and when she needed to be changed she was uncomfortable with a male cna. The staff refused to change her cna and told her that she had to wait for the next shift to be changed. That place neglected my niece and if that is their policy they have no business operating a rehab facility. Shame on you Shelton Lakes Staff

  Terrible, please don’t send family here.<br>Care staff seem to mean well, and check in frequently during the day. When present, the personal care staff is attentive and kind.<br>But there’s a persistent issue with lack of staff during weekends and nighttime. Which does impact patient care.<br>Expect your family member to wait 4 hours+ for aid during the day, and not to get it at night.<br>They failed to notice a major injury in my mom, which required a hospital visit. They then failed to even do her intake paperwork, but had no issue harassing her daughter (who has no obligation to pay) for payments.<br>Not many family visit the rehab center and you’ll quickly see why. If you visit family, be prepared to be harassed with calls or to even have the lady from the business office wait for you at the front desk all day to ask if you’ve called the insurance company but not to check on patients 🤷‍♀️
