My grandmother lived there for 10+ years. When she initially moved in she was 85 and weak. We did not expect her to be with us long. Over time she got stronger. The nice outdoor grounds and activities available really lifted her spirit. She lived until 96 and we were grateful for her care. Like any place, you need to remain involved, visit regularly, and get to know the staff and social worker. My friend's mother recently moved into the Hebrew Home and while new restrictions are in place at times due to covid, her mother's health is improving. My suggestion is if you want a place with a good range of facilities, decent food options, along with real outdoor space, this is a great place to consider. However, you need to remain actively involved: call your loved one daily, visit regularly. If/when issues pop up you can raise it and address it quickly. Most of the staff is great but like in any place all you need is 1 bad employee to impact care. That is what we did for my grandmother and my friend is doing for her mother and it really helps the quality of care.

Molly was horrible and annoying to communicate with. The occupational therapist Dana and her colleague was a pleasure and were truly helpful in regards to self care at home. I had to wait three days in order to speak with a doctor, the nurses at the nursing station were rude. There were many occasions when I would walk up to the nursing station and greet the staff and would get no response.

So sad to report that my 82y/o mom’s stay this month of February was HORRIBLE. Nurses, Physical Therapist, Nutritionist did nothing to address our repeated conplaints. gross delays in having nurses attend to my mother resulted in her developing bedsores and foot fungus. Food was consistently Cold and always was missing items selected from menu. Physical therapy never provided equipment that we repeatedly told them my mother needed. Nutritionist never provided lactaid milk having repeated told her that my mother is lactose intolerant. During Her 2 week stay she was never seen by a Dr. despite our repeated request to have a podiatrist address painful callouses on her feet. It was only upon our demand to have her discharged that everyone decided to “listen”. This facility is the worst. Do not put your loved ones there!!! High probability of losing your loved ones sooner than God would have them go.

My mother was left in chair by physical therapy she was later found unresponsive and passed away the lack of care and concern for my mother who also was on oxygen and wasn't given a tank while in her wheelchair is inhumane never ever bring you loves ones here they will let them die.. No one was able to tell me how long she was in the chair or how long she was unresponsive for or even a time of passing I do want to thank Omar, Katherine and Shana for everything they did for my mother in time she was there And who ever is molly and has a problem with my post it's called the freedom of speech remember the first amendment? I'm trying to get the word out to help others so they're not in the same scenario as mine stop calling my phone stop trying to reach out to me let my mother rest in peace .I will not remove my comment to make you look good or hide the truth
