Chestnut Hill Lodge Health and Rehab Center

I am a resident at the lodge I came hear a number of years ago I have watched it's rapid decline the last two years I am I think overall the staff is caring however the one bad apple spoils the bunch applies here. The food is awful there is a board for the 3 meals of the day are to be written but rarely are especially on the weekends. There was a time that I would have sent my family here but that day has past!

I find this place to be very friendly I am always greeted soon as I sign in at the desk & as I find my way to my moms room staff members greet me also her room is clean, her day nurse always is polite ,even the staff that bring in her food if I have any questions or a certain matter concerning my mom they are very helpful she has a therapist to work with her memory everyday cause of her stroke

My personal experience with the facility was mixed. I was greeted each time I entered the rehab by a very personable receptionist, but the overall staffing of the facility was mixed, especially if it was during the weekends. The nursing staff during the week was fantastic; very personable, skilled, and informative. The staff on the weekends, on the other hand, was skeletal and the nursing staff was not as attentive. The nursing assistances were a mix as well. Most were not personable, and in my father's words, "they were pretty gruff". My father also stated that the food was terrible. On the bright side, my dad's rehab itself was good. He was admitted for MRSA in his knees, and the rehab did assist him in his motility. When he entered the facility, he was unable to bend his knees for get himself around at all. When he left the facility, he was able to get around under his own power with the help of a walker.
