Happy Siesta Health Care Center 423 Roosevelt Street, Remsen, IA 51050

"Staff and caregivers are very caring and helpful. They do a great job of keeping me updated on my dad's well-being."

"A wonderful place to do agency at the residents are super sweet and the staff work together great!!"

"Extremely helpful and friendly staff! Check-in was simple! Facility was clean and well-kept! I’d give 10 stars if I could!"

"My husband is a resident of the Memory care unit and receives excellent care. He is happy and adjusted to the way of life he has now. The staff is kind and thoughtful of his needs. I am happy he is able to be somewhere like this."

"If you want your loved ones at an understaffed place where a bed filled is just more money in the bank account of some fat cat owners then by all means leave the ones you lack the care about right here in Happy Siesta. As a recent employee I've experienced all that place has to offer from the best residents to the worst staff. If you believe the staff is great you should know that the lowest form of employment there is the best and most compassionate. now as upper management goes they treat everyone with the same lack of respect to and behind your back. Now as i understand it a little bit of couth goes a long ways but id refuse to put any of my loved ones in a place as couthless as that. Appearances are everything when looking in on something but after having spent some time in this place ive grown to realize that employees regardless of compassion or love of the people they care for the ones that do what is right are the first ones to get thrown out. Trouble starts at the top where the DON wont work well with the administrator and all that filters down to all the staff.... leadership comes from being the best you can be visible to others or now and as far as administration is concerned it is done right by the admin but as far as the favoritism and bull that comes from "protected" employees who can do "no" and i repeat "no" wrong but when one person goes against the status quo and tries to do what is necessary and right that person is shot in the foot..and thats not even mentioning the stress the help puts on the residents when the people who schedule workers wont even try to fill the spots themselves... last time i checked when a spot needs filled with no one to fill it it becomes the assistant director of nursings job along with the DON herself... not once in my short lived healthcare career have i even witnessed this...what i do know is this, that this place is going into a downward spiral unless some things are changed drastically case and point shift differential problems(you all are a team act like it), another is the lack of management when they leave a nurse in charge and an aid tells them no and forces the other aides to work twice as much and let the epitome of laziness just roam the halls like they own the place. But through it all i can guarantee that if there is lack of compassion in this field look no further than the ones running the business into the ground and not giving the residents the care they deserve and nothing less"
