Nursing Home Communities in College Station, TX

"Arbor Oaks At Crestview was the one that's closest to our home and that was kind of the one that I anticipated, perhaps, moving into but there were a couple of things that stood in. The buy-in there was quite large. It was close to $420,000. I have had other friends and family say they paid like $90,000 or somewhere in that neighborhood, and $420,000 can cut quite a swath into your investments. The other thing was they had a two bedroom, two bath, but they were still quite small in square footage. I have friends that live there and they have always said the staff is extremely nice and takes very good care of them. When I toured, they were also very nice and were very open about all the facilities. We toured a couple of different apartments and things like that and they were very clear about the things that they have available to their residents. I have played Bridge there with some of my friends and I have tried their food. It was not a complete meal. It was just sandwiches, but it was very good. The facility was all very clean and very nicely kept up. I also got that same feedback from my friends who live there, that they have a very nice facility and that they do a good job keeping it up."

"My father was a resident of this facility from age 42 until he passed at age 50. Most of the staff was very kind and helpful, however the administration was quite the opposite. They treated me as if I did not matter because at the time I was only 18. They told me I was too young to make decisions and that they would do the best the could. ALthough the nurses and doctors that came in were very nice and helpful, the aids absolutly did not want to do their job. They would skip baths and shavings all the time. The bathrooms were constantly dirty and and we had to tell them multiple time to clean the room and my father. Ultimately, the nursing home staff was responsible for my fathers death. the were ordered to feed him because of his stroke and due to lazyness (i guess) they cut his food and put it on a tray. he choked to death. Horrible facility I would not recommend to anyone. Also no recreation or extra facilities. Horrible Place!! "

"I toured Crestview Methodist Retirement Community. I talked to the lady who did the admitting, she was lovely, and very detailed in her talk, she took all of my information, and said she would get back to me. I went on a Friday and it was Monday when I got a call from a different lady that said she was sorry they were not in the skilled nursing area. They did not have a bed for him. That was a blessing because it was a lot further for me to drive. They had a semi-private room and a private room. The facility was beautiful."

"St Joseph Manor is a clean and quiet place. The staff has been great. They're good about keeping their eye on people and being available if you need them. The facility is actually not new, but it looks new. They maintain it and keep it up. There are no strange smells there. My friend has a private room and their rates are outstanding. They seem to have quite a bit of scheduled activities. They have a gym and two different community rooms where the people can get together and play games or work on puzzles. It's nice and peaceful. People seem to be happy there. We're impressed with them."

"My mom is at CHI St. Joseph Health Rehabilitation Hospital. It has been excellent; she's been there for two weeks. The staff is excellent, and the place is very clean, very open, and very comfortable. They have some COVID requirements in place, which means using a mask, social distancing, and being limited to one visitor per day, but that's the way we would like to have it to know that our loved ones are safe. The cost is mostly covered by Medicare."

"My husband is here and I am incredibly grateful for all the staff caring for my husband. This year has been hard for our loved ones and us! The staff have to work extra and do it out of the kindness of their hearts. I come see my husband every day and they stop what they are doing to help bring him to the window for visitation. This is not an easy task but they all do it without hessitation. Thank the staff when you talk with them! They are truly angels! "

"I would like to acknowledge that this nursing facility eve though short on staff during the covid 19 took really good care of my mother during her two week stay after having broke her hip. Rooms were clean, staff was amazing and took the time needed to take care of my mother which was highly appreciated. Therapist is the best and very motivating . My mother loved the food . I would like to add each time we came to check in on our mother and visit with her I personally took notes. I liked that the residents were either outside in the front soaking up some sunshine, or outside int he back enjoying fresh air, I noted residents were clean, well fed, lot of interaction with other residents / staff, the facility itself was clean, no bad odors at all. Staff is very friendly . Maintenance men were right there to fix any issues that came up . Over all I was very impressed. "

"I have been a volunteer for only 6 - 7 months. I love what I see. The employees, that I have witnessed, treat the patients with the kindness, respect and dignity each one of us deserves. God Bless Them, Each and Every One! Thank you so much for taking on the job that we, as family, won't or can't do. "

"One of the nursing homes was a beautiful facility. The floors were shined. Everything was clean, and pristene. I did not like the nursing care that was provided to my daddy because he had a couple or sores, and was supposed to get a bath everyday, but the staff stated that he refused these services. When asked if they explained the importance of the bath to wound healing they said that they did not explain it to him The other nursing facility were my uncle is in was an older facility, but the health care was better than the newer facility. My uncle appeared to be more happier than my dad. Overall,sometimes the newer facilities may not be up to pare conpared to the oler facility. Family should always to a walk through of each facility that they are thinking about placing a family member. "

"I don't really like Hearn Healthcare, but my sister sees it as OK there. I'm satisfied with the care they are giving. I don't like any facility that I have seen, and I'm probably not the one to ask. It is a small town, and it is a small facility. It is not very clean, and the food is horrible. She said the food is horrible. I don't know because I didn't taste anything. I didn't really meet too many of the staff. I wouldn't say they were friendly, but they weren't rude or anything. She is blind, and another person in her room is blind. This no makes sense to me or to her. The facility wasn't very clean at all. "

"My mother has been in the Brenham Nursing and Rehabilitation Center for less than a week now. I've had no problems with them. I've taken a COVID test so I could go and visit her and she was also tested before she moved in there from East Texas. She is in the isolation wing right now and she's not liking it, but she understands. The staff seemed very nice, friendly, and very helpful. Anything that I've asked, they are able to provide answers. My mom is not eating well and she has to have soft food, but they have been offering her other things to make sure she doesn't get sick. The place is clean, but when I got into my mother's room, they hadn't changed her bed and she has incontinence problems. I understand why they don't have so many people in that wing, but it only takes one person to do it. Once she gets moved to a room, hopefully they'll have more help and they'll be able to take better care of changing her bed."

"My wife is in Brenham Nursing and Rehab. I brought her here because Brenham is my hometown. Their staff is okay. Her room is clean. They are also serving real good food. Overall, Brenham is a good facility for my wife. "

"My mom loves the nurse and staff there is something to do monday thru Friday she wishes there was something for Saturday and Sunday. "
