An appreciation of Hillcrest
reviewed on: 12/07/2019 by PaulI simply cannot understand some of the other reviewers. The admissions person at Hillcrest was wonderful, and helped us when no one else could (we needed to be close to oxygen therapy). The nurse Gail was very competent, and the social workers were very very nice. They even had a flutist who came in weekly to entertain the residents - that was a pleasant treat. The grounds were very beautiful: Often times we'd see geese cruising in to the nearby pond. It was a lovely sight for my Mom, and there was a nature path to take her wheelchair on. Yeah, a few trees outside might need a trim, but on the whole the environment was one to be cherished. To those who took care of Lil, I thank you. Paul
Do Not Recommend
reviewed on: 04/24/2018 by Nancy UdenOur experience was absolutely awful from the minute my mom arrived, even the ambulance driver was uneasy! It was the beginning of a bad experience. This place is understaffed by number and quality, as confirmed by a nursing supervisor although she said “we’re having staffing issues”. We never left that awful place for the 4 days my mom was there because of the lack of response by the staff. Very little happened unless we asked and kept asking until it happened. Because we were there to advocate for Mom and keep her due to her brain injury we became nursing staff including administering meds. Do not leave your loved one here unless they are totally capable of advocating for themselves! I can only imagine what would’ve happened to Mom if we hadn’t been there to care for her. We went in on a Friday and I got Mom out of there ASAP on Monday.
Don’t place your loved one at Hillcrest
reviewed on: 11/25/2018 by AnonymousDon’t place your loved one here! Unskilled staff, dirty, filthy refrigerator in dining room. For a while there were ants on the counter, crawling up the wall and even in the microwave! 2 1/2 months of this place was too long! No follow up - We asked them to check our mother’s urine because it was cloudy and smelly. We heard nothing so assumed all was well. Then 6 weeks later, when I’m at the nurse ‘s station and ready to remove her from the facility, they finally called to find the lab results of the urine culture. Yes, indeed, the culture was positive and she had a bladder infection. Absolutely lack of care or attention and a bladder infection that went untreated from mid-October to end of November. She is a fall risk, but she and others, are left unattended and subsequent accidents (falls) have happened. We had to report one of the aides for elder abuse, which they did take seriously and filed a report. Hearing my mom cry out because the shower was too cold (and the shower door standing wide open) was more than I could bear for her. Of course, you’re lucky if there is any hot water in the evening to clean up at the sink. It’sworse than camping. Recently Mom was feeling unsafe and threatened by a tall male patient who would roam the halls and come into her room different times during the day and night - but they refused to let us her move to another room. — That did it. We packed her up then and there and brought her home. They try to keep patients in diapers, extended purée diets, limit their walking.....nothing to advance their skills but to retain them as a patient. I’m sure they need the revenue. Our family visited Mom daily to check on her care, despite our multiple complaints and meetings with nursing staff there was no improvement. If I had more space, I’d fill it in with more of our complaints and concerns.
Disappointed
reviewed on: 08/10/2016 by KayVery disappointed in this facility! It always seemed a little dirty with messy areas. Questioned if adequate attention and care was always provided in this memory care unit. There seemed to be mostly poor customer service, many attitudes, for the most part the staff seemed to be unhappy. Questioned if all resident (care) needs were always being met, there never seemed to have enough staff on. Many of the residents appeared to be bored/unstimulated, wondering around or sitting alone. The memory care unit main central area has been well decorated and has a large bird (closed) environment. A few great members of the nursing staff working in the unit, unfortunately, they aren't there 24/7. Do not recommend this facility.
Lack of care
reviewed on: 02/25/2019 by Dan LindquistMom was patient for 5 days between procedures, and she will never return there again.Patient must make same request a number of times before anything occurs. When mom arrived there, I requested bed rails to be installed on her bed and the nurse on duty suggested pushing her bed against wall as that should work to keep her from falling out of it. I demanded rails and then one of the aides suggested that they put mattress on floor so she would not injure herself if she fell. I had to finally contact a management staff and they finally had maintainance install the rails. I would have no confidence that a loved one is being helped at all. Just visit and you will see a number of patients left in their beds for lengthy term.
