Kennedy Care Center

Excellent rehab facility. I can not praise Brandon and the staff enough. They helped in every step, from insurance appeals to a very complex treatment plan, with a thorough team-approach. Thank you for caring for our beloved senior with such dedication, follow-through and care.

My experience with this facility was very disappointing. Although my grandfather's doctor had cleared him to go home, the staff denied it when I arrived. On another visit, when I simply asked at the front desk whether he had been discharged, the guy erupted in anger, claimed I wasn't the "responsible party," and refused to talk to me. This interaction felt unprofessional, hostile, and unnecessarily secretive. Families who are involved in a resident's care should be treated respectfully and given clear communication--especially when the resident consents to sharing updates. Instead, I left feeling shut out, worried for my grandfather's well-being, and powerless at a time when he depended on us for support. I sincerely hope the facility takes steps to improve communication and treat famili

Heartfelt Thanks to Kennedy Care Center I want to extend my sincere thanks to David, Liz, and the entire team at Kennedy Care Center. My dad spent about a month at this facility, and while he was understandably upset at first, by the time he left, he and the staff had formed a real connection — they were actually sad to see him go. When my father first arrived, I spoke with David and requested that he be moved to a facility closer to me. David assured me he would do what he could and keep me updated. True to his word, they not only kept me informed but were able to transfer my dad closer to home — something I’m incredibly grateful for. Throughout his stay, the staff listened, worked with him patiently, and most importantly, treated him like family. If your loved one needs care, I highly re

Today I called them and asked to take my grandmother home but they said that I don't have the authority to do so because I am not the "next of kin." California law does not automatically give the "next of kin" authority over the patient. Here's a quote from chatgpt: "Being someone's next of kin doesn't automatically/necessarily make you the patient's legal decision maker in a nursing home or medical context. Here's how it typically works in California, (but I can tailor it if you specify a country or state): 1. If the patient has decision-making capacity The patient themselves makes their own medical and care decisions. "Next of kin" has no legal authority unless the patient explicitly grants it (for example, through a healthcare proxy or power of attorney). 2. If the patient lacks de

Evidently their electricity is out and they are not adequately following up with their patients safety. I am getting multiple calls from my uncle that his room mate is in distress and they can't reach an attendant for help or information about what is happening. I have also tried calling their 24/7 number myself for the past 3 hours with no response nor connection to ANYONE - just terminal hold. If this is indicative of their standard of care, I would not willingly send a relative here ever again.
