Awful facility. The staff is extremely rude and obnoxious and they discriminate against me as well. My grandfather got a cut on his head that was treated with stitches and they put him in this facility because he supposedly couldn't walk and had to recover from his hospital stay. However, this was patently untrue--he could walk just fine (I saw him). Furthermore, his injury was treated in one day and he could have returned home from the hospital the next day. However, they kept him here for no reason (they were simply using him as a tool to make money) for 7 weeks. Furthermore, his stay in the facility didn't benefit him at all (if anything, his condition was worse when he returned home)--he could not get out of bed anymore and needed assistance to walk, and had to be transported everywhere (prior to arriving in the hospital, he could walk around without any assistance!). In other words, putting him in Kennedy Care Center didn't help him. Furthermore, they wouldn't let me take my grandfather home even though he gave me General POA and they wouldn't disclose any medical information to me. This is discrimination because my father and I both have equal rights and powers yet they said that only he gets to make all of the decisions because he is supposedly the closer relative (he may be closer biologically but I lived with him much longer). Not only would they not let me make any decisions but they also withheld medical information from me... In sum, this place is a prison where they exploit old people and use them as a tool to make money. (They kept my grandfather there against his will for three months before.)

Beware: skilled nursing facilities like this one are a scam: they do nothing beneficial and they look for any excuse they can to keep the patient there as long as possible...

Postscript: It is important to understand that skilled nursing facilities are businesses and to them, patients are customers. Hence it is in their best interest that their patients remain sick so that they can treat them for as long as possible... However, there was no reason for my grandpa to be at Kennedy Care Center. In the first place, he's got caregivers and nurses at home and in the second place, his injury was just a cut (no rehabilitation is needed for a cut on his forehead that was stitched up). Despite this, the administrators wouldn't let me take my grandfather home. I remember asking if I could take him home about two weeks into his stay and Irina (the social worker) said, "No." She said that my father is the first and primary decision maker because he is the son, and I'm ranked second behind him because I'm the grandson. I don't know where she came up with this because to me, it doesn't seem that the law works this way... General Power of Attorney is supposed to mean something but here, I had no power (I wasn't allowed to make any decisions and they also withheld medical information from me due to confidentiality.) However, when my grandpa went to the emergency room recently (he got infected with Covid-19), the doctor at Cedars Sinai let me take him home AMA no questions asked. All I did was show him my paperwork and two hours later my grandpa was at home in bed (they even provided transportation). But at Kennedy Care Center, Monica was being very pushy about keeping him there and told me stuff like, "medical advice says that he needs to be here a while longer and that you should listen to the advice of experts." Moreover, she'd ask me questions like, "Why don't you care about the advice of doctors and why is medical advice irrelevant to you? I mean, they know more than you do." Well, I didn't know what to say at the time but now I'm offended by those questions. I mean, who is she that I have to explain myself to her?! Furthermore, the nurse told me that he needed to be there because when he arrived he couldn't lift himself out of bed. But nothing changed when he got home--he still couldn't lift himself out of bed, and he also needed assistance to walk. In other words, his condition was the same.
