I must say that during this experience with Overlook my mom was treated with the highest level of professionalism, respect, dignity, and compassion. From the ER to the standard in patient rooms to the CCU she was fortunate to have been treated by amazing individuals including Doctors, nurses, aides, meal providers, maintenance, etc. I do have to reference several professionals that had a major impact during my mom's stays which were: Dr Jessie Wilt, one of the best professionals that i ever met in my life, with unlimited knowledge, respect, compassion and really just an amazing human being who truly cares! Nurses; Sidneia, Olivia CCU, Justin CCU, Megan CCU, Rae Mauro, Emily C., Sheryl, Jamell Quiles, Erika and Faith. To these individuals especially and to the entire staff and organization of the Hospital I would like to thank them for everything that they did to make my mom's last days the most comforting possible! THANK YOU!!! Victor Cunha

Every department and office experience were lovely and knowledgeable.

All staff are very well aware of my FIL's needs. They are very attentive and reactive to any requests that we have - as the family - for tweaks to my FIL's care. His hygiene is being cared for. Would recommend Cranford Park.

Following his ileostomy surgery and severe muscle loss, he arrived unable to sit up, stand, or take a single step--but after two months of dedicated support, he left able to stand and walk with a walker. The nursing staff showed incredible compassion and patience, going above and beyond to help him adjust and feel cared for every day. The physical therapists brought both skill and heart to each session, encouraging his progress with energy and expertise. The case manager, Teri, was a fierce advocate, working tirelessly to make sure he could stay for the time he genuinely needed, even as the insurance company pushed for an early discharge. We're deeply grateful to everyone who played a part in his recovery. A special thank you also goes to the amazing social activities director, who created a wide range of meaningful, engaging programs that offered comfort and connection not just to the patients, but to their families as well.

I wish I could give 0 stars. I was transferred to Ashbrook for rehabilitation after a hospital…read morestay for a dislocated hip and severe spinal stenosis. I chose the location because it was close to my sister and she was my primary care giver during rehabilitation. My Sister and Brother-in-law transported me from the hospital fto Ashbrook. When we first walked in we walked smack into the smell, hitting it like a putrid brick wall. The hallway on both sides was lined with dinner carts. All I could think was in the event of a fire, nobody was going to get out. Room was small, furniture was shabby. Bathroom looked like it hadn't been upgraded since the 1950s and it serviced 4 people ( 2 rooms, one on each side) . No one told me about this arrangement and the next morning I walked in on a gentleman. The first night I had my physical evaluation which consisted of me walking up and down in the narrow space between the bed and the wall. There was no call button by the bed for emergencies . The food was such slop that it made me gag to look at it. About 15 minutes after I got there I was on the phone to my sister saying come and get me, I'll rehab at home with the visiting nurse service. My sister said she wasn't about to leave me there and she was already contacting The Visiting Nurse service. I was out of there by the next morning. If you have a choice, don't condemn anyone you care about to this place, it's like the 7the level of Hell!!

This place is quite the opposite. They should call it a deterioration camp for the elderly. Your possessions will go missing, you will not be cared for, and you might as well sign your life away.

My mother was admitted to Complete Care at Clark following a partial hip replacement. Less than 24…read morehours later, I demanded her discharge due to verbal and physical abuse by a night-shift CNA and unsanitary conditions within the facility. During the night, the CNA refused to assist my mother to the bathroom and told her to "go ahead" on her own. My mother explained that she had undergone hip replacement surgery just two days prior and could not ambulate independently, the CNA responded, "I don't want to touch you." When my mother asked for help getting back into bed, the CNA forcefully flung her leg, causing severe pain. When my mother screamed, the CNA stated, "I told you I didn't want to touch you." Later, when my mother again requested help to use the bathroom, the same CNA questioned her need, saying, "You really need to go again?" She then made inappropriate and distressing comments, asking who would help her at home. When my mother said her husband would assist her, the CNA replied, "If you do this at home, your husband is going to leave you." This behavior was cruel, degrading, unprofessional, and completely unacceptable--especially toward a vulnerable post-surgical patient. No one should ever be treated this way. In addition to this abuse, the facility itself is filthy. The room appeared poorly cleaned and unsanitary, which is especially alarming for a post-surgical patient at high risk for infection. These conditions only compounded concerns for my mother's safety, dignity, and overall care. I strongly urge others to carefully consider this experience before entrusting their loved ones to this rehabilitation center.
