"The staff appears to be over-worked and underpaid. Residents are vulnerable to having to contend with room-mates who can be noisy and disruptive, and offered no recourse. "

"My uncle went to Healthwin. They were wonderful. The best thing I liked about them, is they were very patient with him. My uncle is not a social person, but they were very patient. They assessed everything and let us know. They kept in great communication with us. They were amazing. The facility was very nice, very clean, and very well-kept. They had activities going on all the time. But I think for my uncle with the rehab, they tried to keep him moving and try to keep him doing what he needed to do. They were very welcoming, too. They cared about him, what was going on with him, and what the path was that we were going to be taking. They were very kind people. The rooms were beautiful. I know they have different sections, but the section that my uncle was in was very nice."

"My wife stayed at Majestic Care of South Bend for four days, for respite. The experience was good. My wife's room was clean. They took care of my wife. The staff was about average. There were some good foods, and some were not so good. The atmosphere was OK. The people were all nice. They give you what you're asking for. They didn't keep my wife in her room all the time because she likes to talk to other people, so that can be good or bad. Even though they have an activity room that they showed me, my wife just wandered around or watched TV in her room. I didn't see any activity. This place was a lot closer and easier to get to. The facility was really clean and looked new. It has nice grounds. The people seemed to be OK and nice."

"The facility we looked at was Ironwood Health Rehab, and we were very pleased. It’s very clean, caring, and efficient. The workers were very nice, friendly, and helpful, and they took very good care of my dad. They had a rehab room, outdoor courtyards, and recreational activities. However, it’s an older facility and needs modern updating. "

"Even with the challenges of staffing and COVID in healthcare, West Bend's staff have gone above and beyond to accommodate my family member. The managers are very informative and kept our family updated throughout the process while my dad was in rehab. Building is outdated but it isn't always about the bells and whistles!"

"My mother is at Saint Paul's. The staff is very caring. I have had lots of good conversations with the nurses and the aides there. She ended up moving from there into the hospital for a while and then rehab again and we weren't sure if she was going to be able to move in. They all loved Mom. They wanted her to come back and they said, "Whatever it takes, she can come back." They're very sweet and she's got a good friend there, too. We had Thanksgiving dinner there and it was pretty good. She has a studio, so there's a bathroom and a living room, bedroom combination. They've got lots to do there. She also has PT there, and she likes having mass every day. They come right to the floor, so I think that's good because a lot of them can't get off the floor. They try to have something every couple of days for them to do. I've only participated in making Christmas decorations. Compared to other places, value for money is very good."

"I toured the facility for a loved one. The facility was very well lit, spacious and clean. The staff were very friendly and professional and were very engaged with patients in activities. It was great to see patients smiling and enjoying themselves. "

"My husband was in short stay for 7 weeks and I can't say enough about how good his experience was. The staff was very attentive and caring. I'd like to give a shout out to all the staff, the nurses, the aids, the housekeeping, the transportation and the cooks. I'm very glad we choose Creekside for my husband's care."

"I had my mom here. They have some fabulous people who work here. They were always so kind to mom. They provided us with everything my mom would have wanted in her last days. I cannot thank you enough Marti, I am so grateful to you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! Gloria French"

"This is an excellent nursing home, I have worked here as a volunteer and planning to get an actually paid job. So it highly recommend it. "

"They take very good care of my mom at West Woods of Niles. She is in a semi-private room, so she has a roommate, but it is very nice, and it is fine. They have crafts, music, Bingo, and all kinds of things going on. Like for the Father's Day this weekend, they are having ice-cream cones, and they are getting ready for the baseball season. The food is good. There are three dining areas, and all of them are surrounded by windows, so you can see outside, which I think is a very helpful thing. It is very well-lit with natural light so they can see outside -- see the flowers and the bushes. They have bird feeders and different things, so it makes it nice for the person to be there. It is not dark, and it is very open. The servers and everyone are very attentive. Part of why we chose it is because it is a local community where we were raised, so some of the people that may or may not be in the nursing home might be former friends; it is more local. They also do rehab, and that is how she started there -- with rehab. I would recommend them. They are very attentive and very considerate. "

"Southfield Village was very clean and roomy. They were doing an activity when we were there and they had an activities director that was doing it. It was very organized, except they only had a room on the second floor, and that was a no-no for my mom, but it was very nice and the people were friendly."

"I'm here at Sprenger Health Care for rehab. I think it's really nice. The staff are fantastic. The food is very good. If you need transportation, there is a woman here that arranges the transportation. It's very good. It's very clean. I don't see anything wrong with it at all. The cost is like any other one."
