Putting my dad at Cedarhurst was one of the best decisions I made in the years of managing his health. Cedarhurst welcomed him even though he was gruff, grumpy, a hoarder, and often looked homeless. After a few months of Cedahursts’ kind, caring staff and community, however, there was a beautiful change in my father: after decades of living in isolation, my dad finally had a sense of belonging. Finally happy and content, he would chat and joke with friends, help people with their coffee, and play bingo and cards into the evening, even on his very last night of his life. And in the end, my fear that my dad would die alone, sad, and unnoticed for days was abated: he was noticed missing at breakfast, proper protocol was made, I had immidiate and contiual contact with management and staff two states away, and once the EMTs left they gathered and prayed over his body. Cedarhurst has so much heart and love to give, please know even the gruffest of hearts can find a home here.

Wouldn’t recommend anyone work for the CedarHurst of Collinsville. The management is a joke (trainees don’t get taught correctly )the stuff gossips like they’re all still in highschool. People come in late like it is normal! They take you off the schedule but are always calling you asking to come. Don’t listen to you when to have an issue do not send loved ones there lazy workers and unorganized staff !!!! 0/5

Moving my parents out of their home of 60 years was an incredibly difficult experience, made possible only by the kindness, professionalism, and energetic staff of Cedarhurst in Collinsville. The facility is bright and cheery,always well kept with staff willing to listen and improve on issues when there is a concern. Patience and love is demonstrated in every situation I have observed, from meals and personal care to planning personal events for my parents. One can feel a sense of family and commitment the moment you walk into the lovely entrance. Janet, Kari, and Sonny are always smiling,and watching out for their residents, even when things are busy. Nurse Beth is so patient and respectful. All the staff I have met are vested in all aspects of the well-being of their residents, willing to do whatever is needed.

Professional Failures

A terrible place to send your loved ones. Staff is inexperienced and lazy. The nurses cant even be bothered to get up and check on people. Food is barely edible. The building is falling apart. I wouldnt be surprised if the place was shut down within the next 5 years. I wouldn't send my worst enemy here to live much less my family members.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Questions & Answers

What if I do not want to receive the vaccine?

Addington Place of Collinsville | Nov 1, 2021
Addington Place of Collinsville | Nov 1, 2021

It is each person’s and/or responsible party’s right to refuse the COVID-19 vaccination. Any resident or employee who declines the COVID-19 vaccine must complete a Cedarhurst Refusal Acknowledgement for COVID-19 Vaccination.

Is it safe to receive the vaccine?

It is each person’s and/or responsible party’s right to refuse the COVID-19 vaccination. Any resident or employee who declines the COVID-19 vaccine must complete a Cedarhurst Refusal Acknowledgement for COVID-19 Vaccination.

How will I show that I have been vaccinated for COVID-19?

Addington Place of Collinsville | Nov 1, 2021
Addington Place of Collinsville | Nov 1, 2021

Each person vaccinated will receive a card after the first (1st) dose and after the second (2nd) dose. That card will include the date and type of vaccine received.

What are the side effects from the COVID-19 vaccine?

Addington Place of Collinsville | Nov 1, 2021
Addington Place of Collinsville | Nov 1, 2021

Most people do not have serious problems after being vaccinated, according to the CDC. Your arm may be sore, red, or warm to the touch. Some people report getting a headache or fever, particularly after receiving the second dose. These side effects are a sign that your immune system is doing exactly what it is supposed to do. It is building up protection and immunity against the disease.

Will the community, residents, or staff be required to pay for the COVID-19 vaccine?

Addington Place of Collinsville | Nov 1, 2021
Addington Place of Collinsville | Nov 1, 2021

No person will be charged for the vaccine or its administration. The vaccine is paid for by the federal government, No. Section 3203 of the CARES Act, which does not impose any cost- sharing requirements, such as a copay, coinsurance, or deductible. A minimal administrative fee (approximately $28) may be billed to your health insurance, including Medicare. The pharmacy will be reimbursed for the administrative fee by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) program for those uninsured.

Is it better to get immunity from actually having COVID-19 than it is to get immunity from a vaccine?

Addington Place of Collinsville | Nov 1, 2021
Addington Place of Collinsville | Nov 1, 2021

No. The CDC says getting the COVID-19 vaccine is the safer choice. While still learning about the virus, the current advice is that COVID-19 has caused serious illness and death for many people and if you get it, you also risk giving it to your loved ones, who may also get very sick.

Do I need to provide my insurance card?

Addington Place of Collinsville | Nov 1, 2021
Addington Place of Collinsville | Nov 1, 2021

Yes, FRONT and BACK photocopies of each participant’s current insurance cards will need to be obtained and attached to their consent form. This will allow the vaccination teams access to unique claim billing details and avoid interruptions to the community staff.

Will I still need to wear a mask after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine?

Addington Place of Collinsville | Nov 1, 2021
Addington Place of Collinsville | Nov 1, 2021

Yes. We must continue proper infection control measures, including wearing masks, practicing physical distancing, and hand hygiene. It is unclear how well the vaccines will curb the spread of the virus. The Pfizer and Moderna trials tracked only how many vaccinated people became sick with COVID-19. More research is needed to understand if vaccinated people can become infected without developing symptoms and, if so, whether or not those persons can silently transmit the virus to unvaccinated people.

How will the COVID-19 vaccine work?

Addington Place of Collinsville | Nov 1, 2021
Addington Place of Collinsville | Nov 1, 2021

As with any vaccine, the goal of a COVID-19 vaccine is to expose the body to an antigen that will not cause disease but will provoke an immune response that can block or kill the virus if a person becomes infected. After receiving a vaccine, a person develops immunity to that disease without having to get the disease. Some vaccines last a year (like the flu vaccine) and others last longer (like the polio vaccine). Current science suggests that the COVID-19 vaccine will be more like the flu vaccine requiring annual dosing, but research will be required to fully answer this question. Although we do not know how long the protection from either the vaccine or from having had COVID-19 will last, we know that that the vaccine is a strong step towards eradicating COVID-19.

Do I need to give consent in order to receive the COVID-19 vaccination?

Addington Place of Collinsville | Nov 1, 2021
Addington Place of Collinsville | Nov 1, 2021

Yes. When your community receives the appropriate state- approved consent form from the pharmacy that will administer the vaccination, the form will be provided to you or your Responsible Party for signature. Verbal consent may also be obtained for residents who DO NOT have physical or cognitive ability to consent. If a resident or his/her Responsible Party is able to provide written consent, written consent should be obtained. If consent is collected verbally, a community representative’s original signature is required in addition to that of a witness on the consent form. The verbal consent must also be documented in the resident’s medical record. Further, the community is authorizing the pharmacy to bill on behalf of the individual being vaccinated. The pharmacy may require the consent form prior to arriving at the community and before they administer the COVID-19 vaccine.

How will the vaccination process work?

Addington Place of Collinsville | Nov 1, 2021
Addington Place of Collinsville | Nov 1, 2021

Either CVS or Walgreens pharmacy will come to the community to vaccinate residents and staff. We anticipate three (3) clinics, with two (2) opportunities to receive both doses of the vaccine. Clinic #1: Group 1 receives first dose Clinic #2: Group 1 receives second dose Group 2 receives first dose Clinic #3: Group 2 receives second dose

Which vaccine will be distributed to my community?

Addington Place of Collinsville | Nov 1, 2021
Addington Place of Collinsville | Nov 1, 2021

It is our understanding at this time, that all long-term care communities will receive the Moderna vaccine. However, depending on vaccine availability and distribution efforts, the Pfizer vaccine may also be used. Once your community receives its confirmation for its vaccination clinic, the specific vaccine will also be confirmed.

Does the vaccine require multiple doses?

Addington Place of Collinsville | Nov 1, 2021
Addington Place of Collinsville | Nov 1, 2021

Yes. The Moderna COVID-19 vaccine consists of two (2) doses, administered four (4) weeks apart. The Pfizer vaccine consists of two (2) doses, administered twenty-one (21) days apart. You must receive both doses of the vaccine as scheduled by the pharmacy. Maximum protection against COVID-19 may not occur until several weeks after receiving the second (2nd) dose of the vaccine.

Will the vaccine prevent me from getting COVID-19?

Addington Place of Collinsville | Nov 1, 2021
Addington Place of Collinsville | Nov 1, 2021

Vaccines authorized for emergency use by the FDA have shown to substantially reduce your risk of getting COVID-19. If you are exposed and contract COVID-19 after being vaccinated, scientists believe that similar to other virus vaccines, your risk of serious complications will be substantially reduced. When vaccinated, you will help protect not only yourself, but also your friends, family and other members of your community. Both vaccines were tested in large clinical trials to make sure that they meet safety standards. Many people were recruited to participate in the trials, including people of different ages, races, and ethnicities.

Is this a facility that accepts Medicaid?

I am sorry, unfortunately no we do not. We are a private pay community. We do accept Vet Benefits and Long Term Care Insurances.
