Nursing Home Communities in Palm City, FL

"My husband is at Encompass Health Rehabilitation Hospital, an affiliate of Martin Health. He was there once before just this year and he improved a lot. It's not so easy to get in there, but it's got a tremendous and wonderful staff. Their rehab is very intensive and I would recommend them. They work multiple hours a day, 3 to 4 hours, with their residents. They're top of the list as far as being helpful. It's a lovely facility. It's very clean and they are just very attentive and very skilled. They do miracles. They really do. The food is great, too. Everything is top-of-the-line."

"I was not happy about being sent to the Rehab wing in a nursing home, after having lived in one for four years a while back. However, Salerno Bay is not your typical facility. All staff take an interest in you and your care. Everyone, no matter what department, would answer your call bell and ask how they could assist you. The CNAs treated me and my roommate as if we were their family members, in the way they bathed and dressed us, to delivering our meals. Speaking of the meals, they were definitely not the usual institutional fare. The food was seasoned well and served in small, but sufficient sizes, to help us lose or maintain our weight. I liked the way we were offered a variety of desserts, just in a much smaller portion. The nurses were compassionate and organized, always making sure we understood our medications. The activities director came by our room and delivered a calendar of upcoming events and encouraging us to take part. The social worker came in to introduce herself and offered to answer any questions in her area that we might have. The therapy departments that I worked with, physical and occupational, were determined that we would meet our goals and would go home much more able to handle our daily activities when we got there. They pushed us and encouraged us until we met our daily goals. I would highly recommend this facility to anyone who needs rehab for themselves or a family member. I would gladly return if I needed rehab again, or even long term care."

"

"The best of all the rehabs I’ve been in. Great care and very attentive to the call bell which is impossible. Great physical therapy by Brian. The CNA’s and nurses took great care of me. The television needs updating. They use DISH and only get a few channels. TV are too small. I didn’t like sharing a room but that was only for a few days. They spoiled me. "

"The staff of Palm Garden, like the directors and all that, are very attentive. Obviously because of COVID you can't go into the facility or see the facility. As for trying to get in touch with my mother, that was very difficult. The phone number that they said rang into her room didn't work. They said that they fixed it but they didn't. Not being able to reach her on a daily basis or talk to her was difficult. My mother felt like we just kind of dropped her off somewhere and left her there. I would say the care was very good. As for updates, I did not get them unless I called. So I had to call them to ask how things are going, what was happening and all that kind of stuff. Do they have time to call every single resident family member? I'm gonna go with no, but if they do say they have that plan, then they meet once a week to go over everybody's scheduled plan then email us. We have so much modern technology that it doesn't always require a cellphone to do that. I think that they could have updated a lot better than they did, but for care, it was good. She came home and she's able to do things on her own. I do have to compliment the dietician that does work there though because he took the time to email me the menu and to help pick out my mother's meals for her. From what I can see, the facility is clean. The front lobby has everything like the tables for COVID precautions. They did that very well. This place was covered by my mom's insurance so it was great."

"My father is moving into The Gardens of Port St. Lucie. He is still on his feet, so he hasn't been confined to a wheelchair yet. At this point, I think it's going to be a good spot for him. I liked everything about it, including the people we met and the activities that they have going on. I've been there several times because I had to set up the room, so I got to see the operation, and it's nice and cozy. The staff were all super helpful, friendly, and very nice to the other residents. It was very clean and looked organized. There weren't things lying around anywhere. The bathrooms were clean. Everything was clean."

"All the staff brought their own personality to the job. They were quite patient with me. Kelly, Tom, and Rob of PT/OT generously educated me on my recovery needs. Dietary makes a mean grilled cheese."

"My father was a patient at The Manors. I chose it for a couple of reasons. First, it was a locked unit and because my father had Alzheimer's, I had to have him in a locked facility, otherwise he would wander. Secondly was the cost. Their cost was probably the most competitive that I found for a nursing home care. "

"The reason I visited Pine Grove Manor was because my father was a patient at their nursing home facility. Pine Grove Manor was their ALF side. This facility was clean. It did have a very homelike atmosphere, which I like. I also like that they have an enclosed patio with tables and it overlooks a beautiful garden in the back. It was very bright and cheerful. The help was very friendly. All of them were very welcoming. The staff was wonderful when I visited. The residents too were happy being there. I did see their rooms and they were nice. They were cheerful and bright with big windows. I would recommend this place. "

"My husband was a patient for two weeks for Rehab. The Staff were GREAT "

"My friend is at Ardie R. Copas State Veteran's Nursing Home. I visit him every Sunday. It's only for veterans. It's very good. He is in a shared room. The rooms are huge, though. They might as well be private. They are separated by a partition. They have a movie room. Every Monday and Friday, they go out on field trips if they want to. He went to a baseball game this past week."

"Courtyard Gardens Rehab has been nothing short of a blessing from God! I am not sure we could have found a better place for our father to live comfortably in the entire state of Florida. We are forever grateful for the staff's compassionate care and attention to detail. Your staff genuinely cares about the patients. An example of this is David from physical therapy, he treats my father as though he was his father-with compassionate care and genuine support. Almost every member of the staff has the same great attitude and is always smiling, even after long days filled with many difficult challenges. "

"I am working on getting my aunt out of there right now! This place is nasty: gnats flying, CNA's throwing clean linens over dirty ones on the patients, soiled briefs sitting outside the rooms. No dignity for the patient. Does not contact family of any changes in condition, incidents as in bruises, refusal of therapy. Not a pleasant or happy environment. Cannot get the nurses to explain health situations in person. "

"This care center is very clean housekeepers go over and beyond cleaning my family's room and all other area's the housekeeping manager is very polite and willing to help others he really has turned this place around since 2018 the nursing team is great they all work together as a team they offer activities to residents and keep them busy"
