If you have another place to put a relative after having a stroke or strokes (which was my husband's issue) RUN away from this dump. My husband had several strokes. When he arrived, I was hesitant to place him there for rehab because of the condition of the rooms. The bathroom smelled like urine and the rooms were dingy. Most of the staff with the exception of the Social Worker Taquisha, 2 nurses (Dahlia & Chule (spelling)the OT, PT & ST therapists (they were great) were LAZY and had bad attitudes. The 10 days my husband was there I had to ASK THE STAFF TO CHANGE HIS BEDDING AT LEAST 3 TIMES. I HAD TO ASK FOR 2 CUPS OF ICE JUST ABOUT EVERYDAY. KEY WORD... ASK. My spouse did not have cups for water half the time. What was he supposed to do drink out of the pitcher? It got so bad that I would stop and get him a huge cup of ice because I knew he would not have a damn cup. No one came in and mopped the floor or sanitized the bathroom on a daily basis. I also noticed his ADL needs were not being met. He had not had a shower in days, and he had not brushed his teeth. Lazy employees. Bad Attitudes. Do something about that. I lost my temper the day before my husband was to be discharged because I had had enough! After that everyone was super nice and wanted to help in any way. Why did it take that??? I am so glad we are heading home to OHIO never to see Emory Rehabilitation ever again. SAD.

Marginal is the most generous rating I can give based on my experience. Pitiful is more accurate. The staff seems to be trying but the front office and the Dr. with whom I was involved are incompetent. I was admitted on Nov 29th and Discharged on Dec 3rd. During that time I spent 10 minutes with an occupational therapist and two sessions with a physical therapist totaling 45 minutes. My surgery became infected and the DR. wanted to keep me an extra 10 days for antibiotic shots. He was nasty when I told him I could take the antibiotics at home. Not sure why be he refused to forward the prescription to my pharmacy and the office did not forward the referral for home health care to the home healthcare provider. This is particularly disturbing as it is one of the few facilities my insurance company has approved. Makes me wonder what's going on there.

My brother-in-law was a patient a North Decatur Heath & Rehab from 10/6/21-11/9/21 from chest wall surgery. On 11/9 he was still unable to transport from his bed to a wheelchair, walker or toilet. He was left in bed in diapers and not helped to the toilet for BMs when he pushed the buzzer for help. He has a catheter. The place reeks of urine smell. On 10/30 he had been sleeping a lot & very confused for several days so I requested a urine test. He had a UTI. The staff never thought of doing a test until I requested it. On 11/9 he was in so much pain he asked to be taken to the hospital they said “oh he was complaining and requested to go” like it was a problem. Today he is in ICU with a severe UTI which has moved to his kidneys, ruptured bladder, urine in in abdomen and septic shock. Maybe if they had tested earlier we wouldn’t be in this situation.

I left the hospital mad at life and through their caring they gave me the first love I ever knew of. I'd never had a kiss or a hug and didn't know what love was. through their love and friendship, I know a little about love and care now. stranges feeling I ever had. so, this would be the place I'd want to be if I ever was sick again. and the patio garden is so beautiful, they should call it God's therapy. rooms are nice and the best staff.

It is so sad that you can't reach anyone to ask questions about your relative. They answer and then hang-up on me. My brother is blind and the service he is getting is awful. I am not in Georgia and can't believe this is happening. He was scheduled for dialysis and they never showed up. He is dressed and no one will pick up the call button. Is this the way you treat handicap patients who is blind and can't fend for themselves. Due to Covid no need to fly in to Atlanta because they won't let me end.

I would like to applaud and thank the management and staff of North Decatur Health and Rehabilitation Center ("NDHR"') for the excellent care and services I received while convalescing and receiving therapy after my hip replacement surgery. This is a "First Class" organization that I would highly recommend., especially in this age of COVID-19. A resident there for 21-days, I can personally attest to the fact that this facility deserves a "5 star" rating across the board for how it cares for, and provides excellent services to its residents. From Day-1, I witnessed the rigid/necessary COVID-19 restrictions being practically implemented by all of the staff and managers I encountered. I admit, that I was at first resistant to the idea of essentially being confined to my room for 14-days, but by the end of my stay, I appreciated the care being taken to guard the residents and the front- line workers, from the corona virus, while still keeping the organization going. I would like t o give accolades and thanks to the Nursing Staff (Tiffany, Sophie, Samora, LaShonda, Byron, Seble, Sheila, Tish, Superior, Donna, Shanel, and Nareesha) for their professionalism and excellence in carrying out the orders of my subacute care during my entire stay. I would also like to the CNA Staff (April, Katrina, Brenda, Latoya, Marlene, Marcy, Ken, Keisha, Dahn, Tasha, Taneesha, Andrea, Pauline, Jewel, and Chanel) for the care they provided, especially the impressive response time to resident call button requests. I've been in other facilities where response time has not been so good so I commend NDHR for recognizing the importance that this makes to it's residents. I also recognize and thank the therapy department staff (April, Andrew, Aster, Barbara, Stephanie, and Jarvis), for getting me up and walking again and able to resume regular activities after my surgery. I give special thanks to the kitchen staff (Will, Craig, Mike and Tai) for adequately meeting my special dietary needs; and also to the Housekeeping, Supplies, and Laundry staff people (Emit, Creef, Evangelene, Arlene, and Jaquees) who all supported my needs during my stay in a most professional and efficient manner. Last but definitely least I would like to recognize the Social Work staff of NDHR (Rishonda) for the excellent job done in coordinating all of the various components that made my stay a good one. and my return home good as well by linking me with the services I would need. Thank you again to the management (Ms. Liz, et al) and all the staff for making my stay at NDHR a good one. Chris

This center is just a warehouse for patients. The care is horrible. Some of the staff is viscous when caring for the patients. Physical therapy is a joke. This should be your last resort.
