After my mother underwent cancer surgery, she was a resident at this facility. From the moment we arrived, the staff treated us like family. The staff showed compassion, patience, and genuine care during one of the hardest times our lives. The rehabilitation support was amazing, and they made sure my mom felt comfortable, encouraged, and supported daily. This stay was about 6 months. A year later, after breaking her hip, she returned without hesitation because she knew she would be in great hands. Once again, the care exceeded both our expectations. The therapy team did amazing helping regain her strength and confidence. With having cancer healing took longer in general but progress was made daily. Just as before the staff always went above and beyond to make her stay a positive and pleasant experience. I personally would, and have, recommend this nursing home to anyone needing rehabilitation or long-term care for their loved one. I was there very frequently and never left thinking my mother was not in good hands. Truly a 5-star experience both times! Staff is friendly and love to hear any concerns as they pride themselves on providing great service. 5 Stars

I just left that facility, that place need to be closed down. I feel sorry for the long term residents they don’t have ID cell phones they take their disability checks. It’s really messed up. I was mistreated by nurses,gna, social services,executive director All of those people in that place. I hope they close it down. Please take the sister one too Clinton rehab I stayed there for 2 days it’s worse. How can anyone treat sick elderly handicapped people so badly. I voiced my opinion so they was happy to see me go. They didn’t give me physical therapy for my broken ankle. I’m gonna pray for everyone still in this facility.

My brother recently die from the care in the care of for Washington rehabilitation center located in Fort Washington, Maryland. I won’t tell anyone do not, do you got any circumstances send a LLove one to this facility for anything unless you do not like them nor care for them, and wish them harm or death. They allowed my brother to suffer his last week of life. When my sister went to visit him on the day that he passed, they had taken away his nurses call button, taking away his ability to suction himself. Turn the machine off, he was in feces they had that there’s no wash them. The nurses were rude told family members that if they wanted to talk they had to go in the hallway and they were not to wake him up because he was difficult to deal with and that they could not understand anything he was saying and even pointed to the hallway. On the day my brother died, I asked for the name of the nurse who told my brothers to go to the hallway to talk and of course they said she was out due to illness. (She was sick). The last time I saw my brother was that Tuesday before his death on that Friday, he was in a lot of pain and again there was no nurse call button in his bed. They had taken it and put it on something hanging on the wall up from his bed which he’s could not reach. No one deserves to be treated the way my brother was treated. He was a good wonderful man. It breaks our hearts to know that you suffer the way he did due to their lack of care and compassion. My family and I went to see him on a Saturday, we walked into his room and his trach was oozing with secretion coming out of it, going down his neck and under his chin and again there was no nurse called button in his bed that he could use to call for help and his suction machine hose was in the floor so he couldn’t even reach them , I went out to get the nurses and told them to get in there and clean him up now and this was absolutely horrific and unacceptable and that I would be contacting MD Quality Health Care to report them. They told us we had to wait in hallway but my two sons stayed in the room with him to watch what they did with him. I told them that they had better get him taken care of now and that I will be contacting Maryland Department of Health about the lack of care for my brother and them violating his rights as a patient and his health. This has to change. If anybody knows of any lawyers, any other resources, I can take please, please I beg you to contact me. Their treatment towards my brother was horrible and unacceptable. The place is filthy, dirty the furniture is old and broken and the one in my brothers room 102 you could not move it much because it was wobbly. The furniture in the room beside him the bottom was missing. It’s like free furniture off the street that is left for free. I could not imagine that there was any place worse than Villa Rosa, but I found it and it is called the Fort Washington rehabilitation center. I am still searching for a lawyer to defend my brothers rights that were violated to bring justice not only drive family, but for him. I had just had a meeting with the doctor and other nurses for rehabilitation, dietary, and speech I believe that Tuesday before his death, and they told me a completely different story on the day he died then that day that we spoke. horrible horrible, horrible. I am telling anyone who has a family member looking for a rehabilitation facility for their family member, please, please DONOT SEND THEM HERE. Again, if anyone has the name of a good lawyer, please, please please forward me that information. It is absolutely insane that no one is holding anyone accountable for this. I will check back from time to time to see if there is any information concerning a lawyer posted thank you all and I wish you all a blessed day. And watch over your loved ones.

I was there in late February. I am an RN who did work at nursing homes in the 90's. As a Nurse I never treated people the way they did. I was admitted on Saturday around 6 pm for rehab. Had surgery on a broken ankle that past Thur. I was to stay completely off my left leg post-op. 1st they had to change out the bed bc it was broken. Waited with ambulance crew while they put in a different bed in the room. Once in the room, it was so hot my roommate had to keep a window open so we could "take it" so hot... When I asked to see the Nurse, said she would be back. When she did come in she did no admission exam. Gave me some pills, didn't show what they were. When asked my morphine which I take twice a day.. They would take of that tomorrow. Night Nurse did do my PPD for TB. Got me some Tylenol. I was only 2 days post-op and that was all I could get. In the morning same Nurse from Sat was back. Told me I would have to wait until Monday after seeing NP, they would prescribe my morphine. I was already in withdrawal at 9 am. Sweating vomiting and diarrhoea ! I called friends to get me out. When my friend showed up, Nurse came in friendly and started talking to my friend. (She said she was why is talking to me. I don't anything.) I told the Nurse I was going home. She left came back with the paperwork. Speaking toward my friend and not me... Said something that I surgery for a wound they couldn't see bc of the bandage. I clarified that I had a broken ankle surgery not a wound infection. She left saying that they would not help me leave. Luckily my roommate let us borrow her wheelchair to leave. If that was not available I was ready to crawl out of there !!! I got home and Monday sent reports to State of Maryland and to Medicare... BTW, the nursing assistants were great ! Otherwise you are on own !!!
