| - So this update is 2 yrs late in the making. You see, my father died as a result of the blunt force trauma he received at Sante, the very night he was brought there and I told them he was a fall risk and needed to be in direct sight and restrained if necessary. Neither of these things happened. He suffered a cracked skull and blunt force trauma. He was sent to the hospital where I was called (Sante did not contact me at all). He was medical helicopter'd to St. Joseph's in Phoenix. He never stood a chance. All of this could have been prevented and Sante of Mesa failed to do this.
My view is, if you are capable of speaking up for yourself and taking care of yourself such as needing rehab for a surgery, then this place may be great for you. However if your loved one is not capable of this, is weak or needs help in movement, stay far away from here. It's taken me this long to even respond. I hate what my father went through, the pain he suffered, because of not following a simple request. I've missed my dad at every holiday, every family event. I have missed him every single day for over 2 years and still feel like I am grieving. My only hope is Sante of Mesa reads this, FEELS this, and makes significant changes to the procedures. Nobody should have to go through what my Dad and my family went through. It was 100% avoidable and they did nothing to avoid it.
