About Decatur Morgan HomeCare

Decatur Morgan HomeCare serves Decatur, Alabama with independent living, home health, and hospice services. The organization holds a 4.5/5 rating across 22 Google reviews.

Families describe notably strong results from physical and speech therapy following major health events, one praised how their father regained use of a weakened hand and leg after a stroke through therapy. Post-surgical recovery also receives positive marks, with families noting their surgeon's satisfaction with progress. When service goes smoothly, staff are characterized as kind, courteous, and knowledgeable. However, some families have experienced inconsistencies in wound care and communication; one noted having to repeat wound-care instructions multiple times without seeing the issue resolved, and another described a therapist's dismissive response to scheduling clarification.

The agency's strength appears to center on skilled therapy outcomes and dedicated individual staff members, though consistency in nursing care protocols and professional conduct warrants attention.

Decatur Morgan Home Health evaluated and provided therapy for my Dad after he had a stroke. All of the staff has been so kind and courteous. They are very knowledgeable about the therapy needed to progress. My Dad has regained use of a weakened hand and leg. I believe this can be attributed greatly to the excellent care he received from Decatur Morgan Home Health. They worked him hard and motivated him to get back to the best he could be. I highly recommend using them for yourself or loved ones.

Decatur Morgan Home Care gets 5 stars from me due to the excellent care given after my knee surgery. My surgeon was very happy with my progress.

When the patient has to explain how their wound is supposed to be cared for numerous times to the nurse and it still doesn't get done correctly something is wrong with that picture. The office goes in and changes the supplies orders without even seeing the size of the wound. Something is wrong with that picture also. I've used this agency numerous times without any problems before but I will not use them ever again.

The speech therapist there thinks he can just come by and claim he has an appointment with me .and when I told him I did not have a appointment with him. he called me a lier. He is very arrogant and told me he was a professional and his time was very important. He was yelling at me. My friend heard him and told me I did not have to take his yelling. I have used this home health before and had wonderful service.but this speech therapist needs some people skills. He thinks he is above old people. I told him I did not need his services.
