Sierra Post Acute

My sister lived at Sierra Rehab from August 2017 to Oct 2, 2017 and received the most wonderful care from all of the staff. From the helpful and thoughtful social worker, to the nurses, CNAs. activity gals and housekeeping staff, my sister received the best of care and oversight as she transitioned from being admitted for rehab to gently slipping into hospice protocol. The staff creates a community feeling and some of the patients help out which benefits everyone. I felt the positive energy of Sierra from the first day until my sister's peaceful passing in this caring place. The staff was very kind, compassionate and friendly to me as well and that helped me at a difficult time.

My father stayed here for two weeks before passing away. This was unexpected but they did everything to help him and our family. They really made him as comfortable as possible and that helped us start to process what was happening. I really appreciate the doctor, nurses and administration for how they treated my father. They are very near to my heart.

What follows is the text of the thank you note I was moved to send to the Sierra team on August 3, 2021: It was for the saddest of reasons that I boarded a plane in Chicago last Wednesday (the 28th) and flew to Denver, and from there cabbed it to Lakewood. Sitting bedside while my childhood friend Eric Alenius drew his final breaths was incredibly difficult. But the courteousness, kindness, and solicitousness of every staff member I encountered during my two visits helped to cushion the ordeal. A special thanks to Kelly for her great thoughtfulness in telling me that when Eric learned I was coming he grew excited; considering that he was barely responsive during the hours I was with him, I don’t know how true this really was, which only adds to the thoughtfulness of the gesture. I remain

Staff treats families of patients terribly, bayonetting the wounded by rubbing their faces in the amount of care given already given by the family. In our case it was someone who CHOSE to live on the streets after years of trying to help. We also have other special needs members. Worst of all, they did this to the children too, who don't have the emotional or financial means to help. They further wound the wounded by their morally superior act. The make phony replies to reviews on other platforms. Also sketchy neighborhood, just off Colfax and no visble security as patients walk around outside. Family member died under suspicious circumstances and they couldn't get him to the crematorium fast enough

My sister has been here for a few years and gets good treatment and lots of TLC from the staff.
