My mother was admitted to this nursing & rehab two years ago. The environment in this building was old and gloomy and seeing disabled elderly everywhere made me depressed. It made my mother, who at that time, was 91 years old more depressed also. She prefered to stay in her room. Her mind was alert. The reason she was there was getting rehabilitation after a surgery on her broken ankle and leg. Therapists there were great and pleasant. Some of the aides were pleasant and others were not. When my mom needed attention, most of the time was not responded quickly....ranged from 10 to 30 min. Occassionally, I had to look for an aide. Social worker was responsive to my questions and was nice. The food was not great...bland. Overall, this place was okay but not impressive. I recommened that this building and the patients' rooms be updated with furniture, decorations and bright painted walls. Also, make the room, hallway, and entrance/lobby more welcoming and pleasant. Also, group each area with elderlies by same level of cogntive ability together as much as possible to avoid cause cognivitely abled patients more depressed. Also, the food could be improved.

I was able to visit Hughes Health & Rehabilitation. There were a couple of reasons why I didn’t want to place my husband there. One was that there wasn't a separate parking lot, so you had to park on the street. I do have a handicapped parking permit tag to be able to park wherever I wanted, so I had to use one of the three spots on the side of the front lawn for handicapped people. I would improve the parking. The facility was a very old building. Part of the patio was attached to this huge house, like a mansion. Unfortunately, I found this to be a very old a facility; although it seemed adequate, and I didn’t think my husband would like it there. It was just kind of dreary and dark, and the atmosphere was quite depressing to me. I did see the rooms, but only from the doorway. I would not feel comfortable driving there and being there, especially at night. I was uncomfortable. I would like to have brought my husband to this facility, not only for rehab but also for long-term care, but I don’t think he would be comfortable. The dining area was located off one of the corridors with nice, big, round tables. It was bright, and the food was attached to a kitchen for that particular wing or section of the rehab facility. I could see that they had celebrated holidays, and people are allowed to visit anytime.
