Review for Schwab Rehabilitation Inpatient Center - 1401 S California, Chicago…read more My mother was transferred to Schwab Rehabilitation Center from Christ Hospital today, and I'd like to share my initial experience. Before the transfer, a woman named Lauren had been in contact with me regarding the process. She was incredibly kind, professional, and reassuring. She made me feel that my mom would be in good hands, and I truly appreciated her communication. On the day of the transfer, the EMTs who transported my mom were also very professional and pleasant. When I arrived at Schwab, I was unsure where to park. I pressed the call button at the lot entrance and spoke to a woman with an unprofessional tone. I explained the situation, she asked for a name, and then simply lifted the gate without any further instruction. It wasn't a great first impression. Once inside the building, several staff in scrubs walked by me without acknowledging or offering help. I stood around unsure of where to go until I found a security guard who gave some guidance, though she directed me around the building to a different entrance. That's when I encountered the same woman from the parking lot again -- same unwelcoming tone and attitude. Eventually, I found my mom's room on the third floor. The nurses there were kind and began handling her intake. However, my experience quickly turned unpleasant when a male nurse entered the room. Without greeting us, he pointed at my son and harshly asked, "HOW OLD IS HE?" I was taken aback and asked him to repeat himself. When I told him my son was 10, he abruptly said, "He can't be here, he has to go sit in the lobby." I responded that he wouldn't be sitting alone. He replied rudely, "Nah, you gonna have to sit with him," to which I said that I wouldn't be doing that either and that I'd leave once I finished what I came to do. He then turned to the other nurses and asked, again in a harsh tone, "What do you need from her?" The nurse replied they were reviewing my mom's personal belongings. The male nurse said he was going to "check the age range," then walked out. I asked the other nurses who he was, and they told me his name is Baxter and he's the charge nurse. After I left, I called Lauren and reported his behavior. She was once again kind, understanding, and professional. I really hope my mom's care team is more like Lauren and less like the individuals I encountered today -- particularly Nurse Baxter.

I've stayed at other rehabilitation centers before. Schwab is the best rehabilitation hospital and…read morethe best experience of the three I've been to. Beginning with the staff, the nurses are extraordinary, compassionate, and empathetic. There was nothing too big or too small that they wouldn't do. Nurses Tony, Sheila, Erica, Shaniqua, and Emma went above and beyond. I felt like they treated me as one of their own children they were so loving. CNAs Lidia and Loni were amazing along with Anahi , Anne , and Monique. The doctors were amazing and very thorough, and I spoke with my doctor face to face every day. Dr. Michelle Gittler was always concerned with my feelings, progress, results, and overall health. She was compassionate and loving with her care. I felt like she was one of the best doctors I've ever experienced. When it comes to therapy, I could not have had a better team with Fiona and Leanna. They were loving, compassionate, the most amazing therapists I have ever worked with. When I arrived I could not use my limbs, and I left in 10 days putting on my clothes, taking a shower, using the restroom and walking with a walker on my own. I could not have made it this far without this team.

I got hired and onboarded in April…read more Due to ownership changes, ADP payroll was inaccessible to new hires for 3 months. This meant you could not see your tax information or paycheck stubs for 3 whole months and the office staff refused to send copies of paycheck stubs. 7 clients in 3 months because some of them lied about their needs for a caregiver. Caregivers are not there to scrub toilets or put in IVs or catheters or to take vitals. We are not nurses or maids. I have dealt with a lot of verbal and emotional abuse from clients from this company. Family members screaming and cussing at me. I have dealt with inconsistent scheduling and promised full time work for consistent clients. The lady in charge of scheduling was inconsistent and unprofessional. She would miss emails from staff and clients and repeat harass call staff and clients. The ex owner and new owner would never write her up or take disciplinary action. Run, don't walk from this company.

Used needles, gauze and whatever else they used to treat him,was on the window sill. I had to tell them to please clean it up.

Supplies dropped on the floor and still use it to treat a patient. The people who should be caring for him are NOT doing their job! Have talked with admistrative staff and these things keep occurring. NOT HAPPY WITH THE ESTABLISHMENT AT ALL!!!, Management can't seem to a handle on things. Very stressful having him there.

The place was never a paragon for efficiency or excelled in any way, but I recognized its worth as a walk-in clinic in an underserved area and I put up with the odd nuisance. My visit a few months ago however was a disaster that forever swore me off this place and I would advise anyone but those folks who have no other options to chance it. Everything on my visit went to ***, starting with a young provider who admitted he was in training for just a couple of months (and still was not supervised or accompanied by his trainer) who had to pop out every few minutes to ask "if we can do that" and who almost swabbed my throat with the swab already used for another test (ewww). Things really went downhill when I went to the lab to get my blood tests; when I got there, I noticed two people already checked in ahead of me who were sitting and waiting. I signed myself in and waited for about 25 minutes myself - after already spending an hour and a half in this place even though I had an appointment I had arrived promptly for. After those 25 minutes had elapsed and the door to the lab remained closed with no one calling patients, I went to a gentleman who appeared to be some sort of concierge and asked him to check with the lab if they were aware that there were patients waiting there for over half an hour (including the people who were already there waiting before me). He obliged and did so, and when he emerged from the lab he said someone was coming. And sure enough, SHE DID. A person emerged from the lab and without drawing in a breath tore into the poor youth who had been waiting there the longest, confronting him why he had the temerity to complain and lie that he was waiting there for half an hour. I drew her attention away from the underserving victim and said it was me. She then fixated me with her gaze and yelled at me that I had not been waiting for half an hour since I had signed at XX:XX. I said yes, at this point it had been about 25 minutes, but people had been waiting before I got there, which made it half an hour FOR THEM. She then yelled me again to "not be telling no lies as that makes it look like they're not doing their jobs." At this point I walked away and asked the concierge for assistance in filing a complaint. He was very obliging and tried to help, but after half an hour spending going from floor to floor and room to room he said no one was availalbe to take my complaint and promised he would have the responsible person call me. At that point, I left because I was not about to have someone who was verbally abusive or her colleagues stick a needle in my arm. To summarize the next couple of weeks, it took a while to get a call from the liason in charge of complaints, who mouthed a lot of platitudes but had little to show for it. In the end, I did get a call from the lab director, but other than "reassuring" me and apologizing to me he could highlight no definitive actions taken against the person he employed or any meaningful corrective action. On top of that, he could not explain the final nail in the coffin - why two out of the four swab tests had not come back or resulted. In summary, I will NOT trust my health to a clinic where a) a swab already used for one test can be used to swab you again, b) unsupervised personnel in training is not accompanied by a - imagine that - a supervisor, c) the lab staff makes people wait inordinately long for no reason at all and then d) yells at and abuses the patients who dare raise questions, only to e) have the liason responsible for complaints not be found for days until he is and then he is ineffective, topping it all with f) the lab director neither being able to explain how 2 out of 4 swab test results never came back and then failed to outline any concrete steps to discipline an abusive employee or to implement a concrete plan to root out these serious and unsafe practices.
