Not unlike other facilities this one is grossly under staffed. 1 nurse and POSSIBLY 1 aid to 15(ish) patients that are largely immobile. My family member had to go back into the hospital after 6 days of being here due to the lack of care.

Horrible Facility. My brother was in good Sam and for 2 days and they basically left him alone. It was disgusting he is unable to walk he’s in for rehab and they don’t even take him to the bathroom!
Please DO NOT put your loved on here for care. This facility is awful. I mean really awful. Staff are rude (except a few), they are rude to family, don’t communicate, and are dangerous. Made medical decisions that would have landed my father back in the hospital. My father was there for a little over a week and declined very quickly. As soon as I got him out he improved. Food is disgusting. Environment is run down with overgrown bushes. Nothing kept up well. Can’t even sit outside with your loved one, not allowed. Thank goodness I was able to get my father out. Keep looking, seriously! Administrator is not helpful or friendly and several staff acknowledged her ineptitude. Social worker, well title does not fit her. Not helpful. Zero stars. Update: new administrator, although I’ll never know if improvements are made, he seems genuinely interested in making improvements and that’s so good to hear! I wish them all the best and adjusted my review based on what I believe is their dedication to improvements!
Highly knowledgeable, comprehensive, respectful, kind, caring, and nurturing describes the life my sister experienced in her 3 month stay at Good Samaritan. 3 months because this is the time her terminal cancer allowed. During this timespan Sandy was seen by a highly qualified oncologist and comforted with massages, nail care, whirlpool baths, dog and music therapy, as well as welcomed chaplain visits. My daily visits allowed a first hand experience with the kind and caring environment, sweet physical and emotional care, treatment, and relationships provided by staff (and Hospice Team) at Good Samaritan. The kind and caring treatment was also provided by the dining room staff ~ every day and each meal (due to Sandy having just 4 teeth). Mashed potatoes w butter was her daily (every meal) request. Request honored! Sandy's happiness, peacefulness, and comfort at GS is what mattered most. With grateful appreciation ~Diane, sister of resident along with her extended family and friends.
They took great care of my 102 years old dying grandmother like she was their own kin. She didn't speak a word of English. But they made sure to always -at the least- get us on the phone to check on what she needed or wanted. Always keeping us updated when we weren't there. They went as far as accommodating her request to see me get engaged at her bedside since she knew she wasn't going to be able to make it until the wedding. I cannot recommend this place and more specifically the people and the staff who give of themselves every minute of everyday at Good Samaritan Society.
