My husband stayed in Gilroy Healthcare and Rehabilitation Center, and we got him out in five days. They didn't have a choice because of how much COVID had gone through there. Anyone coming in new is in a room by themselves. Nobody comes in and out, and they leave your food at the door, and you get it. Even though I was told he was going to go there for rehab to get him up and walking, they said once he got there, they couldn't do that. I wasn't able to interact with anybody other than the social worker once, and he was really nice. My husband just hated it there. He wasn't allowed to see the staff, or even to walk in the hallway. It should be rebuilt.
