    This place is phenomenal! This is the place for your loved one to recuperate at a rehab facility…read more Each patient gets their own room. The nursing staff, aides, and doctors are all fantastic - caring and knowledgeable. All your needs are addressed! The food is excellent. The physical therapy and occupational staff are fantastic too. This facility will treat each patient as if they are a family member. If you're looking for a great rehab facility, then look no further! This is the place for you or your loved one!

    December 2018 - January 2019 Beautiful facility - private…read morerooms for rehab residents and looks like a 5 star hotel and we thought that it would be an ideal place for my mother but it wasn't. Note - everyone goes into rehab with different needs. If your loved one needs little to no medical care and is pure rehab (i.e. hip replacement) then this place may be a good fit. My mother (84 years old) had complex medical needs and needed more medical care and more day-to-day help than The Jewish Home was set up to provide. Day-toDay: The aides are critical to the day-to-day comfort and satisfaction of residents/patients and when this group is not managed well, then life until discharge is poor. I met with the supervisor, the director and finally the CEO in order to request changes but found that fundamentally, the supervisors have little to no people management training. My mother rang her call bell with extreme delays in response time. Thirty minutes was not unusual to wait for someone come in to take my mother to the bathroom and then leave my mother alone on the toilet for extreme lengths of time. I found out from an aide that they all went on their break at the same time and they only worked the rooms assigned. So, if a resident was on the toilet and the call bell was on - the resident waited until their aide was available. I finally brought in a private pay "companion" to sit in my mothers room all day so that she could request help by walking to the desk or to call me when there was an issue that I needed to be aware of. (non employee's cannot assist resdients) Medical: I asked for a cardiologist to see my mother and told "he hasn't been into the Jewish Home in more than 3 weeks". When I asked why - the answer was - I have no idea. My first thought was "really?". My second thought was to escalate. I think that top management did not understand, as is often the case for medical facilities, that it should be less about "this is not how we do it" and more about "what should we do differently?". The executive team was kind, caring, and looking to the future but they did not see the little things that mattered so much to residents and to families. I spoke to many, many other residents family members and we shared stories. Some situations were similar i.e. call bell issues and in other cases people had bigger issues than we were experiencing. PT: My mother was not allowed out of her wheelchair unless with PT. PT saw my mother for a short time each day. So my mother spent over 23 hours a day in a wheelchair - little progress was made. My mother's wheelchair was terrible and when asked to swap it out we were told that there weren't enough to do that. PT shared that they were always short on needed equipment which should not be the case in a facility like this. So, finally I gave up and took my mother out of The Jewish Home. She had 24/7 care when she got home and was using her walker within 2 weeks. In closing I want to say - I saw the potential for The Jewish Home rehab facility to be a really, really good place to rehab for any level of care that may be needed. What was missing was management training and soft skill training for their supervisors. I had requested this over and over and I hope at some point following my mother's discharge, this was discussed within the facility.

    Upon my mom's discharge from the hospital, we were told that she was not going to thrive and we…read moreshould consider palliative care. We agreed, and upon a friend's high recommendation, chose Emerson. I am forever thankful we did. In the 8 and 1/2 months she was under the care of 2 North amazing staff led by Flavia, my mom DID thrive! She was so well cared for by the nursing staff and the aides. They were responsive, quick to update me and an absolute pleasure every time I came in. They take their residents' care very personally and as a result, it is above and beyond. The recreation staff made daily activities a joy, and my mom, who even in her dementia was very social, fun and feisty, participated in everything from games - both physical and cognitive - to karaoke and attending all the live Friday concerts. Emerson impressed us at every turn. From the efficient admin staff to wonderful Kelly in the salon, to the receptionists and attentive housekeeping staff, we were always greeted with a smile. It truly reflects their corporate culture, which is one of hospitality and excellence in care. Thank you for making the last chapter of her long and well-lived life, one to be remembered fondly.

    **PSA: TAKE YOUR LOVED ONES ELSEWHERE!** During our terminal…read moregrandfather's stay, Emerson failed to provide basic care, including withholding meals and critical comfort medications meant to manage his terminal cancer. The entire room was overlooked completely. When brought to their attention, staff attempted to deflect blame by claiming my grandfather was confused. However, both patients in the room corroborated the neglect, and a nurse eventually confirmed the failure around 11:00 PM, hastily bringing them minimal food. The following day, we discovered he had gone 16 hours without his required medication. Furthermore, staff repeatedly denied him physical assistance to use the restroom, instructing him to use an adult brief instead, despite him suffering from severe bedsores from a prior stay at this same facility (which previously resulted in a hospital readmission for suspected sepsis).When he expressed fear and requested to leave, staff dismissed his distress as mere "homesickness." Fortunately, we were able to transfer him to another facility the next afternoon, where he finally received proper medical and comfort care. No patient deserves this level of neglect, let alone a terminal veteran who dedicated 28 years of service to our country.
