Townview Health and Rehabilitation Center

loving care for mom

Please do not judge this center from comparing to new centers just built. The staff here on the dementia unit is incredible. Nurse Jessica is one of the most articulate and caring nurses our family has ever met. We are a family of experienced healthcare workers from doctors, pharmacists, clinical lab scientists and office managers. Our mom has received excellent care. Her leg wound was completely healed by the excellent wound doctor on staff. I hate to mention names because so many deserve praise that care for my mom. Amanda, Brittney, Laura and Sara, and many other care so much about the residents. Also the male nurse is fantastic. They offered me a nice lounge to take my mom to and spend as long as I wanted with her. They continue to check on her even when I visit. My mom is kept so clean and I know this makes my mom happy and even gets her nails painted regularly and each of her children have visited and found nothing wrong with this center. We receive updates from nursing staff and always a cheerful greeting when we call and ask about her health. Most of all my mom is treated with dignity and love. I have felt like my mom really is so happy. She tells everyone she loves them often. The laundry is washed everyday and her bedding is kept so clean. Even bedspreads are laundered daily. My moms spiritual needs are met and they keep a rosary on her which is everything to my mom. They read prayer books with her too. You will find the residents sitting around the nursing station talking all day long. The nurses love this too ! I’m sure you will find a newer center but not better staff than the dementia unit staff here. Praise to all of them from the charge nurse to the laundry team. I spoke with a couple sitting outside and the gentleman said his wife had been to several centers around pittsburgh and he said this was the happiest his wife had ever been. He was so happy because she received care and compassion. Thank you all for the amazing effort you ALL give everyday especially in these exhausting COVID times. I wish I could remember more names from the dementia unit to include so please this praise goes to each and every one of you. Job well done team !

My mother was welcomed into this facility 6 months ago. I have nothing but praise for the staff in the way they cared and interacted with her and my family. She was allowed to bring her own chair and chest of drawers. The maintenance men even went to her Independent community and got them! She enjoyed the many activities they had everyday and getting her hair done weekly. She had to be put on the lockdown unit in her last 2 months because she liked to wander and had a failing memory. But that staff was also kind and considerate. They welcomed her and the Hospice staff. As a retired nurse I know working in a nursing home can be depressing but I was very impressed with their staff and the cleanliness of the facility. Mom was on 2 different units and our family was there almost every day. She and the other residents were well cared for, I know that!

Townview seemed to be a good place. They had an Alzheimer's unit. The room was a bit crowded because there were two people in one room and you don't have a whole lot of space. From what I could tell from the calendar, the activities seemed to be good. I spoke with two residents and they like it there. I asked how the food was and they said it was fine. The staff was excellent. There's a physical therapy room.

My niece have worked for Townview for a while and recommended it. I am very happy with the care here, and the food is pretty good. They have movies, bingo, sometimes other kinds of games, exercise groups, and birthday parties.
