Nursing Home Communities in Jasper, TX

"My mother is in Shady Acres Health and Rehabilitation Center. It's in a really small town. It's family owned and operated, and I've known the place ever since I was a little girl. I used to go out there back in the 1970s and sing for the residents there. The facility is getting old and it's not updated, but the staff there is very, very professional. They seem to be very committed to what they're doing to their mission for their residents and I think she's getting good care. I feel safe there. It's not like falling apart. There's nothing dangerous for the residents. It just needs a makeover."

"AVALON IS THE BEST PLACE I KNOW TO CARE FOR YOUR LOVE ONES. "

"The facility overall is okay. My grandmother who can no longer walk was admitted to this facility. Inside it has a okay staff, a tad slow to get things done or finish a task when asked to do so but generally friendly. The overall environment of the building is somewhat depressing. The walls and decoration are very dull. Rooms are very small and shared. There is no screening for room partners and there are sometimes conflict arise out of this. No T.V. or telephone is provided in room without a high charge. The condition of my grandmothers stay was due to leg injuries and from now on she cannot live at home. They have done a mediocre job taking care of her legs and I often discover bed sores on here where nurses have not done there daily rolling over and moving (or applying ointment). However when confronting most nurses it seems to be a lack of communication/chain of command problem more than the staffs unwillingness to do it. One nurse will simply think someone else has all ready done the task because they were not instructed to do so or believe it is the others job. In summary, if my grandmother didn't wish to be so close to home and her husband who is also on a medical downcline I would have her transferred to another facility. "

"I had to place my mother there and the staff was wonderful. They were very accommodating and made sure the transition for my mother was an easy one. The room is nice and clean and the food was decent. I felt very comfortable leaving her there. "
