The Bay at Chesterfield

Marie

This facility has gone downhill in the past year, since this facility was sold to an out-of-state company. There is a staff shortage, constant turnover and minimal training. The best caregivers often leave.

Disgusted with The Bay

The facility is nice, but the company seems unable to manage anything appropriately. They got a new pharmacy and are charging residents extra if they don't use it. Medications are not delivered timely, scripts are lost completely and it's more expensive than the old company. They are filling most of the caregiver positions through an agency and most of the previous staff, the ones who actually got to know residents and cared about their welfare are gone. Some of the agency people are rough with residents and have been overheard yelling and swearing at them. My own family member is afraid of some of them. They are lax in resident care, rooms smell of urine, showers are given without using soap or shampoo, sheets go unchanged for weeks, special diets are not followed and unexplained wounds go untreated unless your family member has an outside nurse come in and monitor the care. Your family member would be better off literally anywhere else.
