03/28/2013 An Family Member of Current/Past Resident Writes: You should expect to receive cold food regularly and almost always missing at least one item, (food not good at all), bedridden patient left in poopy diaper for up to an hour after buzzing for assistance. Probably 75% of workers are okay/good. The other 25% are inefficient and at times very rude. Center is old, but kept very clean and there is never an odor of any kind. Clothing has been 'misplaced' by laundry at times. Semi private rooms are very crowded and need to be re-done. Electric/cable cords are hanging from walls in places. Some of the workers almost cross that border of verbal abuse...I wouldnt recommend it at all.

01/30/2013 An Family Member of Current/Past Resident Writes: my father was there for hospice services. The staff was heartless and didn't keep him clean or comfortable. It was the worst experience of my life. I hope to never see the facility again.

Response: My father has been at Manor Care Collingwood for the past three months and is currently receiving hospice care while in residence there. Although the building is run down and facilities are crowded, the support and nursing staff at Manor Care Collingwood are TOP RATE! Our family visits my dad at least 2 times a day and he is always very clean and well attended too. For more mobile long term patients the recreation staff is very active with great participation from volunteers in the community. The rehabilitation specialists work in a crowded basement but again, do not let looks deceive you, they are first rate as well and when our dad had the physical capacity to work with them, they were gentle and very developmentally/ability appropriate. Shame to anyone who rates a nursing facility on outer appearances without any knowledge of the staff's ability and peformance. Manor Care Collingwood staff is the very best both in skill and attitude.
