Nursing Home Communities in Steubenville, OH

"At Valley Haven Geriatric Center, the workers are very good with my dad. They know how he is, his routine, and he is used to them. We haven't had any problems. The facility is very clean. His room is very clean and he doesn't have a roommate at the moment, so he's very happy about that. He seems to be alright with the food. They do have things to do; he just doesn't participate because he doesn't want to. There are just some issues with communication with the social worker that they need to improve on. "

"On behalf of the Hughes family, I would like to thank the staff at Gables for the care given to my mother. After a short hospital stay, we decided on Gables as the skilled facility to get the care she needed and the therapy to regain her strength, endurance, and mobility to get her back home. Although a few health issues arose, she fought thru them and was able to continue with her therapies. I cannot thank Erica M., Danielle W, and Amy P. enough for never giving up on my mom and seeing that she received the best therapies! Also, her special aide Ava, who saw her thru some tough evenings. The kindness and compassion the staff at Gables had shown my mom was wonderful. She is now home and much stronger than before her hospital stay! The facility itself was very nice. We enjoyed the ice cream parlor and hearing a few residents play the piano."

"I visited this facility a number of times a few years ago. I thought that the staff members were very helpful and made thoughtful decisions pertaining to the residents' needs. The patient support staff were proficient in their skills and were able to meets the needs of the residents in a timely manner. The amenities were adequate in that the facility seemed to be a pleasant place for a resident to live. There is a sitting room/game room where residents can congregate as well. The food that was provided to the residents appeared to be nutritious and balanced. From what I could tell, the residents by and large seemed to enjoy the facility. Residents that could not care for themselves sufficiently were assisted in a manner that provided safety and supported physiological integrity. Additionally, other aspects of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs were supported as well. These include love/belonging, esteem, and self-actualization. The staff made an effort to make residents feel comfortable, and they provided activities to boost achievement and creativity. "

"Valley Oaks Care Center is excellent. It's very clean and there was no smell when you walk in any time. The service is tremendous. My brother is being taken care of very well and we're just very pleased. They are always pleasant and very willing to help and do whatever needs to be done to make the residents feel comfortable. My brother is extremely picky though and he often does not get the food that he wants to eat. There are various activities, but he does not partake in them because he's not able to get out of bed, so he prefers not to go to anything. There are just various things that are not offered. They do not have a phone in the room and they have very limited television stations."

"it was heartbreaking that I couldn't care for mom at home any longer, but Good Shepherd provided excellent care. It was by far the best option within 100 miles. "

"The level of basic care behind locked doors in the Behavioral Unit of Victoria Way is consistently minimal. Often my mother has no water cup for drinking from the bedside water pitcher. On admission, my mother went many hours until we notified staff she was without any water, water pitcher, and drinking cup. Even now, we find mother left in a chair in the same position for several hours. She has developed the beginning of a bedsore from being left up all day in same position. She entered the nursing home ambulating with a walker, taking herself to the bathroom, pulling her pants down and up. Now she has fallen recently. She has no strength to walk to the bathroom. Mom requires assistance to walk to the bathroom, and someone must change her and treat her bedsore. She cannot ambulate without assistance from an aide or family at her side with a walker. And she cannot walk down a hall without getting so tired she must immediately sit down. We have found Mom with no Depends on her and no undergarments. My mother loves to sleep in flannel nightgowns, but the staff does not regularly attend to my mother's bathroom needs, so she now wets herself during the night. and they will only put open back patient gowns on her. I could go on and on. We are looking for another place as fast as we can find one to admit mother, she has dementia and Crohn's Disease. She is 86."

"My father went to Heartland after falling out of his bed at Wheeling Hospital and having his ankle bone dislocated. He was supposed to get physical therapy and go home. If your family member needs PT to return home, this is not the place to send them. Their PT department is useless. Also, if your parent is over 80, they basically make them wheel-chair bound. They do not want "elderly" patients up and walking around. My father walked into Heartland and within a six months, was in a wheel chair and never up walking again. They took an independent man, and because of his age, kept him down. Now as for the care by the doctor,nurses and aides, here was how it went. The doctor at Heartland NEVER touched my father; did not visit with him, NEVER examined him; he only came into the facility to read thru the charts so he could bill Medicare. ALL of his care was from the nursed and aides. I was at Heartland one to two times a day and spent at least 4 hours each day of the weekend and was very involved in his care. My father was outgoing and joked and talked to everyone. We made some good friends at Heartland, and I include the nurses and aides in that list. My father died at Heartland and the nurses were wonderful to my father and my family thru the last week when things got tuff. Heartland is good if you plan on being there on a consistent basis, asking questions and making sure your loved one is always a priority. "

"I have been here for more then 6 years. I am alert and oriented. I can speak for myself when I need any kind of care. I have noticed that some nurses are so intent on their medication routines that they do not pay attention to the resident's comfort level. I have also noticed that some staff members spend a lot of their time chatting to each other about their personal issues. I do not know how these things compare to what is average. "

"My mom is in The Grove at Washington for rehab. She likes it, she said they take good care of her, they are very nice to her, and she has no complaints whatsoever (other than we can't see her, but obviously that is the case at most places with COVID). They brought her in a wheelchair to the front window so that my dad could give her some Valentine's Day gifts through the window, but that has been all. She said the food is good. From the outside it doesn't look that great. It's an older building, but it seemed clean from what I can see when I drop things off. When she was in the hospital for ten days, the hospital never told us she had a bedsore and a stroke. When she went to The Grove they found it. Now the bedsore is gone, and they said the stroke has affected that side of her brain -- the walking part. She's standing now; they didn't want to rush her. They keep in contact with my sister."

"I'm very happy with Transitions Healthcare. The place is always clean and they have adequate personnel. Everybody who work there is very kind and my mother is very well taken care of. I have absolutely nothing bad to say about the place. They have a lot of activities. Every time I go there to see my mother, she's always clean. All the residents are treated with respect and they all look like they’re very well taken care of. They don't smell like feces or urine. They all look like they're happy and not drugged.
