Centre For Neuro Skills

My son was in a car accident and suffered a TBI. We went to Centre for Neuro Skills in Bakersfield after two months in hospitals. Nic showed up in a tilt space wheel chair unable to hold himself in a sitting position, he had a feeding tube, was unable to speak, and incontinent. Nic was cared for 24 hours per day by staff who truly cared and pushed him to be independent. We were at CNS four months and now Nic can walk, speak, eat, laugh, ride a bike, jog, kick around the soccer ball, his memory is better than mine. Nic was elated to finally go home as are we, his adoring family. CNS played a huge roll in helping my son have a future where he will be able to go back to school and work again. Thank you to all of the staff. We love you and we're ever grateful to you always.I read Yelp reviews before taking my son so if that's what you're doing, please don't hesitate. This is the best thing you can do for your loved one. You will have case managers and if any issues arise, they will be on top of it. I watched many a miracle in Bakersfield, my son included, and I haven't a single regret.

some caregiver so rudest lazy, no love, no responsebility, not respectful! I was accused by one caregiver today, the lady totally lying, but supervisor trust what she lied! even let me leave ,don't allow me to visit my husband!its ridiculous!

I am a former, patient of CNS. Like anywhere you go you'll have some good people that actually care about the people that they are trying to help rehabilitate. And you'll unfortunately will, have those that are just there for a paycheck. My overall experience was, satisfactory.

My dad was there for a head trauma My dad was there for one month And I was fighting every day with the insurance company to get him out of there. The first day he arrived to the apartments. Supposedly they were already ready for him. they did not have none of his medications. My dad has a really hard time to adjust to meet people and every day he had a new caregiver by the way with no experience caregiver's have really long nails they scratched my dad every time when they moving him around one time I arrive they took him to shower. He was screaming so I walk in and I ask him what's wrong and he said the water is too hot. Caregiver said no water is fine so I check the water and it was really hot. The caregiver give me a really nasty look and I told her you need to be careful. The water is hot. She totally ignoring me. My mom was there every day so I can't imagine if she was there how bad they will treat him. I feel sorry for the patients who can talk defend them self be careful to leave them by themselves. But therapy was really really disappointing that I have to move him from there because he was doing so good with the therapist

Just updating my review from 5 months ago. Our family is beyond amazed and pleased and blessed to have this place! This place makes miracles come true! My mother has been here for 5 months and because of this place she is walking, talking, eating ect! All in which we were told she would never do again! She had an Aneurysm which ruptured while she was driving causing her to be in a traumatic car accident resulting in a brain injury! What CNS Will do for your loved one is above and beyond any treatment you would receive anywhere els!! This place is phenomenal! Thank you CNS!!

Yea. So I posted a super negative review of this place. I received hate mail (and death threats). Messages that were mostly swear words. Pretty "smart".I guess I'll post anything remotely sparking controversy on tumblr.And yelp! Reviews will be brought to you by Disney. Or Gaspar Noe.I guess this place helps people. When I was in the daytime classes and sessions. It was valuable and the associates were highly educated gifted people who revolutionized people's lives. I'll always remember those times. Those people. I met amazing friends there too. People like me. Which is necessary to have hope and community.So yea. Sorry about the negativity in the past review.

firm face rlthatbtryin to guilt me by saying don't uou wantto elwalk again? This really annoys me because I am paying fortune to be at cns. Csn be rude and CNS is excellent place.I'mhappy here feedback from patients to share info snd diacudss cns offerings __ whatbis good and what needs improvement.and things. I wish they offered group meetings so patients could share useful information together. I would love to know otherscexperiences.this would be the one improvement I would make eithbifferent afos and maybe eithbassisted technology such as bioness or cionic sleeve.I do really like the cns cognitive rehab sessions. They sre Excellent.T

Some great people work at CNS Bakersfield! Racists also, my wife was at this location for almost a year, they offered me to talk to a psychologist, this person made me feel worst, he started talking about politics and because I was just outside the facility watching the impeachment of Trump, and talked about imigrantes , I told him at that time that I was a Citizen and that I had the same rights that he had , and the only thing that was different was that I could not run for President. He told me "I was born here and I went to war . He is Racist I told the managers, set down with one of them. No response.If you are an Immigrant , think 3 times.Also a little detail, they allowed my wife to fracture her right hip, and on the same day a lady that said to be a manager of the apartments where the patients stay, told me that I had to take her somewhere else. No words from the administration.Funny thing , is always the Republicans, this has happened to me two many times. I got to this country and worked my ass off, more than most of the people I know. Very sad. If you have any questions? I have all on [email protected]

For serious CNS rehab, I would go to an inpatient facility that is recommended by your inpatient hospital team, and followed by home health that includes weekly visit with a nurse and 3x per week rehab with whatever is needed. There are only a few in the Bay Area, so ask around.There is no rehab specialist physician on-duty at this facility in Emeryville, and we did not have a good experience with the therapists or the director, who has a PhD in Psychology.The client was declining and they believed it was due to the lack of the family involvement in supporting rehab while at home. They missed signals of a serious change. I would not recommend this facility unless the patient has a mild deficit that needs rehab, and is very young and otherwise healthy.

Worst rehab facility, great therapists but admin is slow to get a response. The doctor barely works during the week. Wrote the wrong script for my ankle brace. Don't waste your time or hinder your progress..
