The Best Nursing Home Communities in Fayette County, PA

"We were impressed with Madison upon walking through the door. The cleanliness stood out. There was no odor whatsoever. Everyone we encountered went over and above with our Dad. He is 98 and he left there walking and strong enough to help us with his daily routine in the comfort of his own home, which was our goal. We noticed immediately every employee seemed very happy and cheerful and the residents seemed happy and were clean and dressed. We never witnessed a staff member being anything but caring, never a harsh voice to any resident. The food was mostly home cooked with a wide variety . If Dad couldn’t eat something they had it was no problem. Many times they made him something else due to his swallowing issues. Thank You to every employee at Madison and keep up the excellent care"

"The rooms are large and staff is friendly. The skilled nursing floor is clean and welcoming. The nurses really are awesome and the aids are wonderful. Any requests I had on behalf of my family member were met as best and possible. Not much in the way of amenities but the staff more than makes up for that. "

"My mother is in Havencrest Nursing Center. It's close to home because we live out in Monongahela. Everything has been great. The staff is very good and very helpful. They have a meeting room, and luncheon room, they have parties, and they have an outdoor courtyard. It's near a hospital, but nothing else close because it's rural. Her room is small. They have two people in a room, so it's very tight. The place is well-kept."

"My parents are in WeCare at Waynesburg. It's a very good facility. The communication is excellent and the care is equally excellent. It's a traditional skilled care and long-term care facility where they provide the standard services, and the staff has been very accommodating, communicative, and helpful. Their meals are institutional food so it's just as good as it can be."

"My friend was well taken care of, he had many health problems along with memory loss. Everyone was very helpful with lots of attention to personal care. "

"My dad moved into Stonerise Morgantown. It is extremely clean, welcoming, bright, and cheery. While at my home, my dad was limited to the bed and wore a lift chair. At Stonerise, he goes out into a central area with other people in palliative care. He sits in a wheelchair and eats his meals with other people. He has socialization. The staff that I've seen and observed were very attentive and kind. They allow visiting of your family members at any hour of the day or night. The rooms are nice. They have a physical therapy area, game room, and dining room."

"I was too there for 3 months as a patient. The people on staff were always friendly and helpful. The therapy staff is excellent. Food was fair. There were some missteps with my discharge protocol and paperwork that could be handled better."

"I was on an in-patient program for a month and I did not get enough treatment. The therapist took care of two or three patients at a time. The out-patient program was better than the in-patient. I hoped to get well sooner. "

"My mother has moved into Westmoreland Manor. Exceptional service, exceptional help from the staff. We had a lot of help with the placement. We also had a lot of help with finances in terms of being educated about different avenues that we can pursue. As far as the staff on her floor, (like the nurses and nurses' aides, the staff, and the cafeteria staff), they have all been just really, really nice. I've gotten to know quite a few of them on a first-name basis, and I would give them my top recommendation. I would cut Mom's dinner up for her, and so I took an occasional bite to see what the food tasted like, and it was very good. My mom is gaining weight, too. I have no complaints. She eats everything on the plate, and I've never seen her do that before, so I'm sure she would evaluate it highly, too. My mom is not very mobile, so she doesn't go anywhere, but her room is adequate. I can get in there, sit down on a chair, and so on. The maintenance of the place is excellent, too. My mom refuses to go to any activities. She just wants to stay in her room. However, they're always having activities, and they're always inviting her. In that respect, I would give their activities a five. I also know a lot of people on the floor go to the activities. They have a patio. I haven't seen it yet, but I'll be taking my mom out there as the weather continues to warm up. There is also a library. I've seen the chapel, and that's very nice. Some of the activity rooms on the floor are large."

"My husband is a disabled Veteran and after many strokes I had to get help caring for him. Hemfield Manor has been a blessing for us. The rooms are clean and my husband needs are handled fast. Food is good and if he needs help the aids are fast to help. I have been in a lot of nursing homes I would rate Hemfield one of the best. K nurses always pleasant and aids take good care of my husband. When I have wanted my questions answered the nurses and aids take time to answer me. My husband loves the aids and nurses that care for him. When he falls we get a call as soon as it happens."

"Happy, pleasant staff. Very helpful. Great activity program. Food is excellent!"

"My mother is in The Rehabilitation and Nursing Center at Greater Pittsburgh. They're in the middle of renovating it, so it's improving. The outside is beautiful, and the inside needed to be upgraded, though they're well into an upgrade of the interior. I've got pretty good feelings there. They're pretty proactive with me when it comes to my mother's care, and she improved dramatically since she got there. Their rooms only have shared bathrooms. It's skilled nursing so it's pretty expensive. You're looking at $12,000 a month, which is a lot of money."

"I was so upset at first sight of this "highly rated" facility as we brought my loved one in. There is not enough staffing, and the aides are worked too hard. There are caring individuals, but almost 95% of the time your loved one is left to wander alone. No one can be taken to the bathroom while dinner is being served, while they take them to dinner, or bring them back. Elderly people must WAIT till staff is ready for them to go. Not the cleanest place either. Not enough liquids given for proper hydration. WAY too many people in the building- no personal care for anyone! Anyone who has made progress on recovery from a stroke or heart attack or injury will backslide rather than progress with healing. There is NO future in this place! Very Depressing and truly difficult to remove a loved one from once they are there. "

"The rooms could use a paint job to brighten them up. The staff is always kind and accommodating when I need assistance with my family member. It is always festive looking during all the holidays for the resistant's and they definitely make an effort to try to improve the place."
