Nursing Home Communities in Sandusky, OH

"Admiral's Pointe Nursing & Rehabilitation was marvelous and wonderful for short-term rehabilitation care. They were very caring, pleasant and nice. They took my father to rehab once or twice every day and pushed him a little which he needed. It was a very good experience. "

"My cousin has received excellent care even though she can be difficult at times. Rooms are comfortable and adjusted to her liking. Staff is available for questions. Sharon loves Bingo!"

"My mom moved into Gaymont Care and Rehabilitation. They seemed very helpful with my mom and got her settled in. The whole process just went pretty smoothly. The rooms are fine for the residents. They're not too big, but big enough, and things are pretty accessible. My mom is very comfortable. She likes it. She appreciates the staff. They seem to try to have a varied menu."

"We chose Kingston of Vermilion for my mom because it's clean, the people care, people do shows there, the staff is great, and it's in a very peaceful and nice setting. "

"The facility is beautiful, I will give them that. However, it was overall an awful experience. From the admission to when my dad left. We were not given very much information, processes on how things worked. Nanci the administrator was great. Most everyone else, we either felt like we were bothering them or they just didn't interact with us. When we tried calling in to check on our dad, most times it took up to an hour or more before we could make contact with someone. And a lot of times were told someone would call back, and they didn't. Professionalism is lacking terribly, from the DON, the social worker, the majority of nurses. I got a copy of the notes from the time my dad was there, and the nursing notes were very one sided. My dad was on hospice. The last straw was when his Fentanyl patch came up missing (several days after the fact, after I asked for the status of that, was told it was found in the trash can, and I am sorry, not really buying that). While we didn't want to move dad again, felt it was in his best interest to move him to where he would get the care and attention he needed and deserved. My dad was not a priority for them. I hate that I put my dad there, but it really the best option, sadly. Nurses would avoid us. Didn't want to deal with us. Maybe for short term rehab this would be ok. If your loved one isn't cognitively alert or medically fragile, you have to stay on top of everything and advocate strongly for them. "

"My wife was at Ottawa Riverview Nursing for a year. The staff was good. The room was fine. The food was acceptable. It wasn't great, but it was okay. It wasn't as good as the other place was. But they had bingo and they had musicians now and then. They had different games to help keep them social and a little active. They're located on the river and they could go out on wheelchairs outside. They had a nice garden area and an area where they could sit and get some fresh air. The staff were fine. The physical condition of the place was fine. The rooms were clean, but they just smelled like urine."

"The staff is very friendly and the living spaces are kept clean and organized. My aunt is happy with the activities that are offered and assistants, and enjoys here own room with everything she could need. The residents are encouraged to mingle and join in many hosted events, and occasionally they offer tours to various locations. My aunt enjoys sitting by the large bird cage filled with colorful birds and watching them fly about. we looked into several places prior to this decision, and I think that this was the right decision to make. The cost is reasonable and I know she is happy spending her final years there. I would recommend to anyone dealing with this tough decision to look into Elmwood. Having to move a loved one to a nursing home is a big decision and everyone has different reasons for doing so, but you must always keep their best interest in mind when choosing a new home. "

"My husband is currently a patient at Elmwood West Campus. I wish we had time to research more places because they are not very attentive at all. If Im not there every day-he has to wait long periods of time for someone to answer when he asks for a nurse, and many times when someone finally does show-they say "Oh wait, I don't do that you need a nurse-let me try to find her" "

"My father is in Elmwood Assisted Living & Skilled Nursing of Fremont. So far, it's been great. It was like night and day, moving him from what we had experienced at the other place. It's much better quality, much better care, cleanliness, just all around. We're happy that we moved him there. It's been a very positive experience. They're very professional. My dad likes the food a lot better. Yesterday, he went to a game and he enjoyed that. They have a lot of other activities as well."

"My brother once stayed at Parkview Care Center. I know that he said they were all very nice. Of course, he did not like being there because he can't have visitors. But other than that, if it was not for the isolation, I think he would have been happier. But that is beyond anybody's control at this point. They were very kind and attentive. I guess he ate only because he had to eat. Some things were probably better than others, no matter where you go, even if it is a restaurant, it will have that issue. I would imagine it was not as good as home-cooked meals. I was not able to visit it him and I was not able to talk to him that much because his phone did not work. It is in a convenient location. I could tell they put on a new roof, so they are improving the building itself. He was not able to do anything. He was not very mobile, and he ended up with Covid, so there was nothing for him to do, he could not leave the room. I don't think anybody could leave the room because of Covid. The staff was excellent, from what I understand. They were always very, very nice to me."

"He was well taken care of by the associates there. He was a very independent person and had spent most of his life dealing with alcholism so being able to have people around him helped him a lot! My mother had worked at Bethesda care center for a couple of years and knew that it was a good place that would provide the care that he needed in his final days. He never ever acted as though he disliked being there and always had positive things to say about his nurses and his room mate. They had a community lunch room. On many occasions we would go and eat dinner with him. He was able to have many of his things in his room such as his recliner that he loved to sit in. He also had his tv and personal pictures up which was a comfort to him and us. My grandfather was a very lonely person through out the years. He had lost my grandmother when she was only 25 to tuberculosis and never remarried. So to get some interaction with other people on a daily basis was very good for him. "

"Amherst Manor is nice. The staff is very nice, accommodating, and friendly. The grounds are nicely kept up and pretty clean. They also have other services like rehab, memory care, and a nursing home all in the same facility."
