my first day here tv not working my sheet has urine stains i was not offered a towel ice water cup. It took 10 hrs for me to get pain meds. The sheets towels and wash cloths are so old they cant get white need to buy new ones and stop being cheap and all about profit. It wreaks of death in this place a stinch that you smell all day and night. I think some of the reviews are highly fabricated. I don"t like it here a week and i have 2 words Im Gone.

DO NOT USE THIS CENTER! To start off, it is extremely difficult, if not impossible to get through to someone on the phone. When someone finally does answer, they just transfer you around in circles. However, my main complaint is the level of attention that they give to personal hygiene. When I went to visit my mom, I helped her drink with a straw. When the straw came out, it looked covered in peanut butter like gunk! I asked, and they said she had not just finished eating, so it was some kind of buildup. Another issue, my mother is unable to brush her hair, and they didn’t help her do it either. Her hair is now so matted that the new rehab center she’s at called me saying that it will need to be cut off. When I called to address these issues, the basically just wanted to argue with me about the level of care and attention that my mother was receiving. In the end, they ended up saying that if I don’t like their care, to take my mother somewhere else. Now my mother is at another facility that actually has been addressing these issues.

I was a resident of Envoy of Alexandria Rehabilitation Center in February 2017 following my total left hip replacement. I chose to return to Envoy after my total right hip replacement on December 12, 2021. Envoy’s skilled nurses, technicians, occupational and physical therapists, social workers and activity coordinators are helping me to become self sufficient in caring for myself while managing my pain before returning home knowing how to maintain hip precautions to strive for a speedy recovery. The Director, administrators and other staff are phenomenal as well.

There are many decisions that go into the process of choosing a nursing home for yourself or someone you care for. It is normal for the family and the resident to experience some degree of anxiety about the move. A life change as important as moving into a nursing home should be handled with care and should be made as comfortable as possible. Residents and family members can make the transition easiest by remaining informed and by proactively seeking a caring environment where the resident will feel most at home. During the transition, frustrations may occur while your loved one is becoming accustomed to the new surroundings.

Long-term care insurance is becoming more common, but benefits vary by insurance provider and policy. It is important to check with your insurance carrier to determine your policy s exact coverage for ongoing, long-term care.

Why can't I stay in the hospital?

Hospitals are designed for patients who have serious medical problems that can be treated only in a hospital. Insurance companies may review and stop insurance benefits when you no longer need acute hospital care. A nursing center can provide the continuing medical care and rehabilitation services you need to help you recover from illness or injury so that you can return home as soon as possible.

Who pays for nursing home care?

The social worker at the hospital or nursing center will assist you in determining the appropriate payer source (which may include Medicare, Medicaid or private insurance). If you need Medicaid to cover the cost of nursing home care, you will be referred to a Medicaid worker to help you with the Medicaid application process.

How do I know which nursing center to choose?

You and your family member(s) should select several nursing centers for evaluation. Placement often happens very quickly so contact, visit and tour as many nursing centers as practical. Be sure to ask questions that address what you believe will be most important to your loved one. We offer a convenient informational sheet to help you consider the various factors. Please talk to our admissions staff for a free copy.
