Apollo Health and Rehabilitation Center 1000 24th Street North, St. Petersburg, FL 33713

"I have no complaints except thatthe staff has no understanding of a vegan diet. I explained that I eat no meat, dairy, or eggs,and they keep bringing me food I cannot eat. I had to order a vegan(no meat) impossiɓle burger from Burger King. I must change my review because tonight I was served pork roast for dinner in spite of many requests for vegan food. Requested a peanut butter sandwich and was.refused. I am leaving tomorrow even if it is AMA. I feel sorry for the people who have to stay here."

"This place is absolutely terrible!! They are so neglectful it is heartbreaking if you have a loved one in this place. They need to be shut down or at least have everyone in their fired besides the doctors and the physical therapist all the nurse and CNAs are lazy rude and terrible! Pray that your family member never has to go here!! I am going to be looking into a lawyer for a neglect case!"

"They took very good care of my father for 21 days for pneumonia with COPD. My father had this to say of his experience: The staff, from cleaning personnel to the nurses, were ready to help you get better. They all answered questions and offered suggestions. The Physical Therapist was well trained and the gym was large and well-equipped. Large, single rooms with bath. Closed door policy (knock to enter). Good food. A fine place to get better. Russell C. Parker Sr."

"I was there for about 3 weeks and had the worst care ever! I have been to other facilities and this was by far the worst. The nurses and aides did not care about me nor provided the care expected. I had to ask for simple things like clean sheets, getting a shower, my medicine and every time they acted like I was bothering them and it still was not completed. My daughter had to call the administrator just for me to get a shower (first one in 3 weeks). The facility was dirty and definitely not to standards. I have a specific health issue that was discussed prior to me coming to the facility and when I asked the nurse to help me, she told me she didn't want to and refused. She tried to get the aides to do it, but this had to be performed by an RN. When I was ready for discharge, the social services department once again acted like I was bothering them. It took several family members to call and follow-up for the referral to be completed. The only group of staff that were nice and completed their jobs were the Physical Therapy staff. I would NEVER recommend you go to this facility. Compassion and care is NOT what they provide."

"I went to visit my dad while he was staying at this nice, homelike place. He is enjoying his stay and likes all of the staff members. I ate lunch and it was very tasty. All of the people that I encountered were nice and very happy to help your. Each place that I visited there was clean and tidy. I would recommend it to friends and family alike."
