AnMed Health Rehabilitation

Janice

My wife was at AnMed Health Rehabilitation for two weeks. She was in a shared room. It was an institutional setup. The staff was very nice. We first went there during COVID, and two more times within the last three years. She dealt mostly with the therapists, who were very nice to her. I know she liked that a lot, but every time they started working with her, she'd have to go back to the emergency room and have another operation. I had no complaints. They knew what they were doing. They were knowledgeable. They were very nice to me. She enjoyed the staff. There were no stairs. There was no elevator. A couple of times they placed her far down the hall and I just couldn't make it all the way down the hall where they put her. The receptionist was leaving the desk, finding me a wheelchair, and then wheeling me down to the end of the hall and they had no problem with it. They were smiling. A lot of the girls that took me out to my car when I left were very friendly and very chatty. She liked the food, and I liked what little I had of it. It's a small place. There was one big room you passed that had vending machines in it. It was nice and it was where visitors could meet you and you were not laying in bed.

Shut down

My father wasn't looked after and now we do not have him any longer. Staff said no matter what kind of state the patient is in they do not send the patient to the hospital without family consent. My brothers asked for doctor to come in several times. My dad was unresponsive and that wasn't enough to send him to hospital. Family asked and asked for doctor, never came. couple nights prior waited and waited for doctor to come in, was told he was there but never showed up from 5:00 pm-8:30 pm. Nurses did not put in my dads recorders that family kept asking for doctor. The gentleman next to my father was given medicine he did not need, he went down hill until his family found out, asked facility to stop medicine he did not and they gave it to him 2 more nights. Family got involved and they finally stopped the medicine. FOR THOSE PATIENTS THAT WAS TREATED RIGHT, THANK GOD. THE FACILITY NEEDS TO BE SHUT DOWN OR NEEDS NEW MANAGEMENT AND WORKERS. Some were good most, you could tell just a job.

The rooms were nice. The staff was excellent. I was treated very good. I wouldn't go any where else if I needed it again and would highly recommend.

My husband is now at AnMed Health Rehabilitation. I found the rooms to be very clean. They are in the stages of remodeling some rooms. They said that you would hear noise around lunchtime, but it doesn't matter. They have TVs in their room, so if something noisy was going on I just turned the TV up. This is the fourth time he's been there, and I found them very good. The staff are very friendly and very caring. It was funny because he was there a little bit ago, and when he got back I think he is in the same bed, and this lady walked in and she said, "Oh, what are you doing back? You were just in that bed." So they even remember names. My husband is pretty picky, but whatever they were eating, it smelled very good, and he was eating it, so it had to be good. They have counseling, and they have a full rehab facility gym where they work with him on all kinds of different things. In the past, they got him walking with a walker, so I think they did a great job.

Have heard this is the best one in the area.Heaven help us.I am assuming the physical therapy is adequate.A nurse called me & told me my husband was taken to the hospital for a blood transfusion.Late that evening I had not been able to contact him & called & asked to tell him to call me.I was told he was at the hospital & I respond I thought he would be back by them.Was told she would call me between 10 & 10:30.No call.Phone rang around 1 am but hung up.The next morning I called & finally was told he had bee admitted.Wed.Aug 12 I was called & told he was sent to ER.I explained to the nurse my previous experience.She reassured me she would keep calling the hospital & keep me informed.I am still waiting for that phone call.He died that afternoon.Also had I known they had such a large lobby, we could have gone there & seen him from the window.We live in Walhalla. No one ever suggested that. He kept saying he wanted to come home because every time he went there he go sick.

I choose to go to Anmed Rehab after a hip replacement. Nursing staff was terrific. They answered the call bell almost immediately. Responded quickly for request for pain meds. The therapists are awesome!!! The gym area is very crowded and could be enlarged. The down side of my experience was the horrible food. The meal is determined by the company headquarters so there is no special meal planning such as a diabetic diet. With so much emphasis on privacy, the facility needs to ensure that all patients have a private room. Overall I would return to this facility
