My grandfather Mickey Park said the staff is really nice it takes great care of him. He said everyone is very respectful and he has zero complaints. Even in his 90s, he’s always been a flirt so it’s funny to see a younger female staff Member walk by and to see him give her a little wave and she smiles and winks back at him, which made him chuckle. Thanks you to the staff for doing a job that I clearly saw in person can be a tough job to do.

They retaliate against employees who called them out for improper treatment of patients (allegedly). And they also treat their patients badly. Food is terrible, often patients are left in their own fecal matter for hours, resulting in bed sores. So think about that before sending grandma there. 🤭

My grandmother was here for just over two years. In that time she fell and broke her hip, had multiple other falls, and I even walked in on her on the floor as she fell out of her wheelchair. No changes were made to her wheelchair until I kept calling and calling demanding change. All of the other reviews greatly describe why I don’t recommend Elderwood. But what really took the cake for me, my grandmother got sick and was on oxygen and I didn’t get a call. I then didn’t get a call when they put her on the full face mask. Lastly, I didn’t get a call when she passed. I had to call and ask. This all happened in less than 48 hours. Had a family member not gone and seen that she was on oxygen and in distress, my mom wouldn’t have gotten those last couple hours with her and I wouldn’t have been able to FaceTime. Moreover, had they called me when this all started like they’re supposed to, I would have been there when she passed. If you put your loved one in here make sure you are going at least every other day and calling daily, even if it’s multiple times, for an update because they won’t be calling you, even when the decline is so fast you know they don’t have much time left. There were good people there, don’t get me wrong, but overall, I do not recommend.

Do not recommend Elderwood!! I have had horrible care here in rehab!! Lay in my own filth does not give out meds on time !!!! I cannot wait to get out of here!!!!! Continuance...inhumane treatment of me. I am a 69 year old woman with many previous health issues. I have been forced to painful physical therapy sessions without any empathy or consideration of my health history. No 69 year old handicapped woman should have to be subject to these painful treatments. I could have an heart attack or another stroke...it could cause my death

If you are looking for quality care for a loved one Elderwood is the place! My Mother has recently had two stays at the rehab center to get her strength back from a fall and illness and the care there was great. No one wants to place their Mom in a healthcare facility during Covid but we felt very secure there and really felt that they cared and went above and beyond to protect her. All of her health care providers were fantastic. Highly recommend Elderwood.
