I would not send my worst enemy to this facility. My mother was sent to this facility from cape Coral hospital do to her being Covid positive and needing physical therapy because she was so weak. I was unable to visit my mother do to the covid virus, however I was able to do a window visit.
Patients who have decided that their priority is to have the best quality of life possible are the people who are best suited for hospice. It is also important to understand what hospice is not. Solaris Hospice helps patients and their families put life first, making them as comfortable as possible, and helping to obtain the best quality of life with whatever time the patient may have left. Hospice care is all about providing quality of life and comfort, with special emphasis on pain and symptom management. I have my mother in the rehab at this healthcare and I am very unhappy with it. They said she was a fall risk so put her in a wheel chair the whole time she has been there.
Rehabilitation services include:
However, hospice patients often live longer than six months due to the increased care and focus on pain and symptom management. Studies have shown earlier referral to hospice care leads to better outcomes for both the patient and family. Click here to learn more about thebenefits of early admission.

Centers also provide long term care, respite services, dementia care, palliative care and hospice services. This allows our patients to transition from one level of care to another without having to change facilities and leave the care team they have grown to trust. Far from giving up, hospice helps families truly live well and support each other during a stressful, yet very natural part of life. My mother was rushed to the hospital from this facility in May, presenting with pneumonia, sepsis, body temperature in the 80’s and told by the way she is COVID positive.

She now is so weak she can't even get to the bathroom by herself. Their way of handling patients that are not cooperating is putting them in a wheel chair by the nurses station. I have not heard a word from them until yesterday when they informed me we would have to make arrangements in less then a week to have her in a new place.
My aunt was in Solaris HealthCare after she was released from the hospital. It was an older building, but they treated her fine. There was nothing exceptional, but nothing was bad.

There are great places to visit including outdoor spaces, screened lanais, and plenty of sidewalks to stroll and visit. I encourage anyone looking for this level of care to take a look at Solaris in Port Charlotte. Hospice patients are those with life-limiting medical conditions that make day-to-day living uncomfortable—physically, emotionally, or spiritually.
When I approached my mother's window she was in a wheelchair falling forward out of the chair they had her so over-medicated to the point I did not even recognize my mother. I called the facility to let them know that my mother was getting ready to fall out of her Wheelchair. I had to call back a second time it took them almost 10 minutes to get to my mother. If we had not went up there when we did there is no telling what would have happened with my mother. I had her sent from the facility to bayfront hospital which was wonderful to my mother and got her out of being over-medicated and found out she had pneumonia on top of it. Now my mother is home and doing well I would not send my worst enemy to that facility.
Obviously she didn’t get in this state overnight. In the COVID reporting this facility lists the beds on their reporting which is misleading. I did bring this to someone’s attention and a few days later my mother all of a sudden was this ill. I can’t imagine my mothers condition that led up to someone finally deciding maybe we better get her to the hospital. I don’t believe it was COVID that caused her passing, it was being sent to the hospital in the condition she was in. The isolation was tough enough and lack of communication and options for families with technology.
So, there are certain things that they set in their ways that they couldn't do there, but the place was nice and clean. I had friends who had been there for rehab and the staff was nice to him. Everybody was fine and the parking lot was adequate.
First, we went to the rehab center, and then they showed me the extended care afterward. They have a lot of activities for their patients, but the rooms were a little more hospital-like. The person that was giving me the tour was very courteous, and I didn't see any other staff. Compared to New York's rehabs, it's a thousand times better.
