Hawthorne Health and Rehab of Ocala

Hawthorne Village was really nice. I was impressed with how spacious the rooms were. From what we saw, we like it there. They have just about the same amenities that the other places we saw have. We had lunch there and the meal and the service were both really nice. The dining area was very nice as well, and the staff was very friendly. The only downside is, if I were to live there, the laundry facilities service everybody. My husband and I would prefer to have a washer and dryer in our own unit.

Hawthorne Village was very nice if you are independent living. But if you need assisted living, it is a totally different atmosphere. The residents were up older people, but they were all pretty getting around well themselves. As far as the staff goes, when we went there for our first tour, there were only 2 people at the front desk. Then after about 8 o’clock, they lock the front door and if you are a tenant, then you have keys or whatever you need to get in. But after about 8 o'clock there is nobody there; they leave. It is nice if you wanted an apartment because that is basically what you are getting. If you go to the assisted living part -- and that is why they move you to another building -- then that is staffed 24 hours a day. But that other building is not the same, and we didn’t care for that area. As independent living, it’s probably a 5. But as of assisted living, with the room that they showed us, it looked like a broom closet. It was very tiny and very oddly shaped; it was a very strange layout. My dad is always not willing to go to a nursing facility or assisted living facility because if what Hawthorne has to offer for assisted living is what he does not want to go into. As far as independent living, it is a beautiful place, and I could rate it highly.

Hawthorne Village of Ocala is nice. The thing with this facility is if you require even just a little assistance, you have to go to the assisted living unit and my mom does not like that because she has friends in the independent living unit. The facility was attractive. The people who live there were nice. It was a very active independent community. The staff were very friendly and helpful. They offered us food at lunch time and it was good. The rooms and apartments were nice and spacious. You have a choice if you want a view of the woods or the courtyard.

We are in Hawthorne Village of Ocala, and it has been delightful. Everyone is very friendly. The food is excellent. They seem to be regimented. They know when to be on your floor to clean. Everything seems perfect so far. It has been a week, and we are very happy. I will recommend it to others because for people that I know and enjoy their company, I will certainly want them where I am.

Hawthorne Village is very clean, and there are no smells. The home health aides are very helpful. I found that their Social Services Department are willing to work with you, and they are very knowledgeable and helpful. My mom loves the staff. They do the medication, and they have been good with that. If they have changes, they will let me know.

Hawthorne Village is very nice and very clean. The rooms were nice, and they were friendly and they were really good. My husband seemed to like it there. I think they needed more people. Overall I liked things, they are fine.

I chose Hawthorne Village of Ocala because this is where my wife spent the last part of her life. She was there for rehab for three weeks. It is a very nice apartment and the staff is very polite and very nice -- it is reasonable. It is not that expensive compared to some other places. They have the best rehab place -- it has got the best up-to-date exercises. You can go there and work out every day if you want. They have trips to different places and they have a couple of shuttle buses that they use. I think it is a very, very nice and relaxing place. They clean the room every week and they have meals twice a day, buffet style, and the food has been very good so far. I checked out four or five different places and I liked this one the best because it is the least congested. It is next to the horse farms and there are no residential places close by.

The people at Hawthorne Village of Ocala were very friendly and nice. It was fairly new and they showed us two buildings. They had apartments for the assisted living area. If my father would stay in a facility in Florida, we would choose this.

I spent 2 weeks in the rehab facility and was treated like a queen. Clean, smells good, caring, can't say enough nice things.

Hawthorne Village Retirement Community was awful. It just looked like an old nursing home to me and the rooms were terrible. The dining room had stains all over the carpet. It was dirty and the showroom was not pleasant to go in. They did not have any kitchenette in any of the places. You had to go up and get the food like cafeteria-style, and I thought that was difficult for residents with walkers and canes. I knew maybe they had staff who helped but I did not see them. I knew they maybe thought of remodeling because there was another section that was new. I would suggest they improve everything.
