My husband was a patient here for 3 weeks after a 3 week stay in an ICU at a local hospital where he had a triple bypass and bowel resection. I was at PAM at least 4 hours a day and his care was top notch. He would tell me daily how responsive and vigilant the nurses and staff were to any request or need and to his general welfare. They kept me abreast of his status, progress and would answer any questions I had. We wish we had left this review 8 months ago but better late than never.

As a Founder of a Non-Profit still within its infancy stages. Within the field of respiratory, I have walked within these halls and worked, even made the company look good. My name is Brandon Hector Rocha, I do not approve of this facility even if they offered me money to begin my foundation. THEY HAVE NO HONOR. I have seen them abuse workers from CNA to Nursing, even the patients. Just think narcissistic household, Company is the abusive narcissistic, medical staff the other adult who isn't, patient the child. Yes they gave me a chance when returning back to the field. But they do not operate in honorable ways. Too many to list. I trust Mobsters more than them. I do not work with them, but at least they even have a code of conduct. The last straw was them over feeding a fellow respiratory therapist mother. They hire nurses but cannot keep them, why, well ask the amazing nurses who left, even the ones who stayed. But physicians orders are cat scratch and hand written. Nurses feel overwhelmed so have no time to ensure the order is proper. You try doing 6 patients with paper charting with mix of ICU, progressive care, and tele patients. tell me how you wont miss something? But, the company knows... and from what I hear for years too. Sad part is they say they care, but I don't care for words I care for actions. Everyone has freedom of speech. But once you act, well, its on you now. I will not work here. Make sure to monitor your loved ones meds for pain and anxiety, especially the liquid nutrition. They care more about money then actual care... ask any of the workers and make sure there is no recourse if they speak up.

If you want your loved one to die send them here. The hospital is not interested in creating policies that keep their patients safe. 95% of the nurses are incompetent and have no business being licensed by Texas or any state for that matter. Oscar Brownlee- Chief Nursing Officer and Vanessa Smith- Nurse Manager lack the follow through to keep any patient safe. They are both very nice and respectful but they care more about customer service as opposed to patient safety. They allow potentially fatal mistakes to continually happen without consequences. Kim Aguedo- Quality director is 100% incompetent. I don’t think she has any notion of how to take care of a patient. This is evident in her policy implementation. Nothing she implements makes an ounce of sense. I looked Kim up on the Texas Board of Nursing website and she does not show up as a licensed nurse. Would you want someone making decisions about how your loved one is taken care of? Someone who has never taken care of a patient? Maybe her license is listed under an alternate name or a different state. Steer clear of this facility at all cost. It really is an unsafe environment. Disclaimer- This is insider information so do with it what you will. I’m sure Post Acute Medical will attempt to discredit this post and someone will respond by saying I am disgruntled. But nothing I’ve said is untrue. I have worked for this company for a total of about a year and 3months. During this time I have seen so much flagrant disregard for policy and Management do nothing about it. I am not disgruntled, I am relieved that I no longer have to worry about being liable for other employees who are not interested in following policy.
