Wonderful Care- they treat patients like family!…read more My dad was in many hospitals and rehabs before he died. Most were short staffed and provided inadequate or questionable care. I moved my dad to Blair House and he was there for one month and I was amazed at the loving quality care he received. They attended to his every need and I could finally sleep at night knowing he would be well taken care of 24 hours a day. The nurses and aides are very caring and compassionate- they treated my dad like family. Very warm and loving and kept me up to date on all changes- no matter how small. The staff was always available to answer my questions and also gave me emotional support. Don't hesitate to place your loved one here- they will receive the best care! Most nursing homes are old and have outdated decor. Blair House is small, the hallways can get crowded and could use some updates but who really cares about that? I was looking for quality competent care and compassionate nurses and that is what I received!

If you are considering this rehabilitation center for a loved one, especially an elderly family…read moremember, look somewhere else. Our experience was completely unacceptable and, at times, frightening. Meals and medications were repeatedly missed, diabetes was not properly monitored, and after a trip-and-fall incident it took approximately 15 minutes for anyone to respond to the call button or cries for help. No family should ever have to worry whether their loved one is receiving basic care. The staff were consistently rude, dismissive, unresponsive, and showed little compassion or respect for the patients in their care. Repeated requests for help, updates, and basic information were routinely minimized, brushed aside, or simply ignored, leaving our family frustrated and without answers. The facility itself is outdated, poorly maintained, and appears to be operating with a complete lack of accountability. Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, and Dialysis are all outsourced, yet communication between those providers and the facility staff was virtually nonexistent, resulting in missed appointments, poor coordination of care, and unnecessary confusion. To make matters even worse, administration is essentially unavailable from Friday through Sunday, leaving families with nowhere to turn when serious concerns arise. This experience shattered our trust. We would never recommend this facility to anyone who expects safe, competent, and compassionate care for a loved one. Based on our experience, this facility failed to provide the level of care, communication, and respect that every patient deserves.

All members of the team were tightly coordinated and in sync in supporting us as my husband's transition accelerated after a very painful fracture of the shoulder. From Faith, a very experienced hospice aide, to McKenzie, the case manager who visited us almost every day, to Connie the weekend nurse whose wisdom, insight and patience carried us forward, to Catherine, the social worker, Valerie, Reiki specialist, and Frank the Chaplin - all brought unique and supportive perspectives as we navigated this challenging time. My husband and I wanted to do hospice at home and as his decline accelerated, this hospice team made the journey possible. I am forever grateful for the wonderful care my husband received and the comfort care my family was given. I would strongly recommend this hospice!

She was able to anticipate needs of everyone & facilitated them, while always putting my mother in law first. She was also able to arrange for a well needed massage from Poppy who was perfect. I cannot say enough about this hospice team!!! The best- don't go anywhere else.

5/8/20 Current Patient…read more I'll start with the latest. I received a call today at 10:27 AM from the VNA nurse scheduled to visit me (she left a message) - the problem is, this is one of the two nurses I specifically asked not to be on my future schedule, angered I called her back and declined the visit. This review is being spurred by difficulties I'm having with this organization "right now" *I first asked for a copy of my medical record on 4/20/20 *Second, I asked that two of the VNAs that have visited me in the past not be on future schedules of mine. *Definition: VAC - Vacuum Assisted Closure I spoke to the receptionist on 4/20/20 with the two requests above, she took my name and number, said she would pass it onto the head nurse and someone would call me back. I received no such call! While in the hospital, before being released to VNA for further VAC treatment, my VAC changes were set at three times per week. I was released from the hospital on 3/18/20 to VNA with the VAC changes set at the same three changes per week. Around the week of 4/13/20 my VAC changes were changed to two times per week by VNA without first talking to me or my doctor. During the week 5/3/20 - 5/9/20 I will have gotten one VNA visit instead of the required three....... This review is a bit lengthy, to read it in it's entirety follow the link below to Google Docs.
