Overall our experience should've been two stars but there were some very attentive staff members…read morethat provided exceptional care. My elderly mother was admitted on a Friday afternoon, which seemed like a burden to the male nurse who did intake (incompletely and incorrectly, which caused problems with insurance down the road). He was not welcoming, at times rude, and seemed frankly unhappy to be working at the facility. The following day on Saturday, the doctor came to see mom and I asked him about bloodwork results. When responding, he felt like he had to show me the long list of patients he had to monitor, so no, he had not yet time to review the bloodwork. Sheesh. Not only did he have an ego, but he gave me no confidence that he would be looking out for mom nor any of the other patients at the facility. After I called him out on that, he eventually provided me with bloodwork results. Later that day, the day RN assigned to mom ignored her requests for her inhaler after her PT session because that was "respiratory's responsibility." Another nurse overheard me asking for it again, and she told mom's nurse that respiratory was not there because it's the weekend. The nurse apologized and finally gave mom her inhaler after we waited almost 3 hours. That's a long time for someone with breathing problems. The PT and OT teams were great. They treated mom with the utmost care and respect. Most of the concerns were with the medical staff. I'm disappointed that a few bad apples ruined our experience. Encompass at Mechanicsburg would be a good place to go if you are not elderly and do not have a lot of medical issues. Encompass, please do better for the next elderly person. For others thinking about going there, just be prepared to be your own advocate.

Where to start? Well, It starts at the top. And, it's the same Management there now as when I was…read morethere - sociopathy may not be the best word, but psycopathy might be. The wrong medications, ALL the time. Would they change them - Hell No. Because if they change the medication, they see that as an admission that they were using the wrong medication - SO, keeping using the Wrong One. Proof - I ordered and received the 1,000+ Medical Report after discharge to see what they were actually using. BTW, the bogus list of meds that they provide upon release bares no resemblence to what's listed in the actual Medical Record. And the bogus list included less than half the meds actually used. The same approach for dispensing the wrong dosage for the meds. Better yet, how about NO dosage? At times, NO appropriate medication was used. On a scale of 1-10, 10 being the worse pain; I was a 10 multiple times after an 8 level fusion surgery. Proof - If you PASS OUT and fall on the floor from pain, after suggesting suicide, that's a 10, period, no subjectivity involved. None. BTW, they get some of the employees to buy into the above approach, particularly the temp contract workers - they'll do anything to stay on the payroll!! And of course, Management knows that! Stay informed, And, stay away.

this was my 2nd time at Vibralife in 2 months. I had to go…read morein after a colostomy. Most of people that work there are very nice and caring. I'd like to give a special shoutout to a couple CNAs. Abby and Meredith were exceptional and tried to solve any problems quickly Also some nurses that stand out are Jen, Josh, Frank and Daphne I will make one comment that was disturbing. I ordered a black sweatshirt when I was in there and it was stolen off my chair. I checked in the closet, my suitcases and all around the room. it was not there. It cost me $40.00. I guess someone else is enjoying it

I was recently sent to Vibralife after a fall and surgery for rehabilitation. The facility is…read morebeautiful and clean. The care I received was also very good. Special mention to Abby who is truly a gem and cares for you as if she was a member of your family. I was very impressed with this place until one person truly made me feel unsafe. The person who deals with your medicines is very unqualified and has no business working with people. When I can't ask a single question about what pills I'm putting in my body without being accosted. The person dealing the meds has a fragile ego and has slammed my pills down and yelled at me. I take maintenance medications that I wasn't getting. The person insisted I received these. I document and know every med that I take. My meds were coming up missing with no explanation. Either someone else received my meds or they were just thrown away. I alerted the people in charge of this and filed a grievance. I sent a follow up to the director and never heard anything back, My room was next to nurses station, so I heard everything. The same person who was handing out the meds was also chief complainer. He complained to everyone and anyone who would listen. I heard same complaints daily. I was even lucky enough to hear conversations about his penis... how professional. Yet, the management in the building prided this person as tracking to be employee of the month. That statement told me right there that it was time to pack my bags and recover at home with in home care and physical therapy at home. Again, beautiful and clean place. Great care from majority of staff. I would totally recommend if you don't require meds. If you do require meds please ask questions and document every pill that you are given.

I can't thank arkview enough for 3rd lease on life. I had been sober for quite some time and…read morebecoming complacent, relapsed and ended up at arkview. I swore many years ago, I'd never end up in another rehab and yet it happened. Was so much worse the second time around shame-wise that I didn't think I'd make it through program. Thanks to hard-working staff including Doctors Greg and James, Theresa, Chuck, both Nicoles, Sue, Ashley, Caitlyn, Natasha and ALL the nursing crew, I was able to do it b/c they all loved me when I wasn't able to even look in mirror, let alone love myself again. I will never forget their determination/dedication to fight for me and all the other clients blessEd enough to make it to arkview. Side note: My first rehab I was sent somewhere that took me w/out any insurance so it was bare bones and relied on welfare/donations and food banks. This time I was blessed to have decent insurance that was accepted at arkview. The differences were astronomical from round the clock nursing staff(thank you for tending to me overnights Rose and Laura), professionally-run daily classes/seminars, unwavering supportive techs and even having a chef to prepare most meals. Thank you so much for giving me such a gift. I pray that others seeking help find their way through arkview's doors. Forever grateful, Tiffany

This program was absolute hell. There are no in house doctors. I went into prescribed medicine…read morewithdrawal the first night I was there because they couldn't get ahold of any doctor. They had to take me to the ER that night. So many broken promises and the recruitment team does nothing but lie to get you there. I was stranded in a different state with no way home on a freezing night. All staff does is tell you different things. I would absolutely NOT recommend this facility. They'll say anything to get you in and keep you there, but no promises were kept. Absolutely negligent to psych patients. Heard stories about people being there well after their promised release date. 0/10.

This is clearly and end of life facility. You do not put someone here you ever plan on seeing again…read moreor they will hate you after this experience. It's is low level quality and care. The people in management work hard to control the residents no matter what if you want to go outside "No" want to get some other fod "No" you want to leave "No" we are not done draining your resources. CNA's are a nightmare, Nurses are better but they look away from any of the of the bad things these people are doing to the patients. The Doctors are non-existent and definitely not top quality. These are the people that barely slid through. If you hate the person you are placing this is the place old unkept prison-like facility with terrible food served like you are in prison Please do not send your family member here they live in terrible conditions with some of the most untrained inexperienced CNA that the medical industry ever produced and since no one will ever work for this place it's mostly all job agency people. The are rude, uncaring, unsk because no one else wants them they work for these agencies that the Garden employes. These are who your relatives are most in contact with so their situation is not to good. Run far and fast from this place. I know if this because I was a patient at this facility and speak from experience.

The staff at The Gardens At Camp Hill are terrific, as my dad was a resident for a period of time…read more The personal care and attention and accommodations is outstanding. A special acknowledgment to Tracey, his nurse who kept us informed and provided guidance. She developed a likeness to my dad resulting in him referred to as "buddy". I commend you Tracey for your personal care and knowledge. There are a number of other staff members which I must acknowledge as well. Ashlee, Daphne, Phyllis, Melinda, Dennis, Sara, Maiya, all providing such wonderful care. I am sure there are some names I am overlooking, but know that everyone who had a hand in my dad's care was so kind. The social worker Melinda would address any issue and was so accommodating and always kind. To summarize, The Gardens at Camp Hill is under rated for the level of care provided by such a wonderful staff. Do not overlook this facility in your quest for a place for your loved one.
