Pandemic has been devastating to this institution. Unless in hospice or carefully negotiated..families i e. People who can identify and articulate what patient needs and staff work w that rather than taking misses personally and giving blow back to the patient. I felt like my husband was no more than a dirty restaurant dish, isolated because food laws don't allow diners in the kitchen, but whether the dish got cleaned in one run or two or came out chipped didnt matter. I really hope it gets turned around. Love this place. Would like to go back. They just can't be who they are right now.

My mother recently stayed at this rehab facility for 6 days following a mild stroke. Her experience was a disaster, full of lacking communication, and unanswered questions. Cannot recommend this facility to anyone with an aging parent. They sold us on their skilled therapists AND policy to allow family regular visits once the patient tested negative for Covid. The reality, however, was that we never were able to see our mother in person despite her testing negative. Visit requests were difficult to arrange. The phones were constantly left unanswered. We never spoke to her therapists or were given any feedback on her therapy despite repeated pleas and even emails to the facility's top management. She checked in on a Friday. On the following Wed, they told us they called 911 because she was found unresponsive and drooling. When she arrived at the emergency room, there was no paperwork confirming where the patient came from. The hospital nurses said this was the second time in two weeks that this facility sent over patients to their emergency room without documenting the facility's name or address. The hospital's physical therapy team tried contacting Wesley Place repeatedly to speak to mom's therapists. That never happened. We still have no idea what happened to our mother in their care. Does this make any sense for your loved one? Be forewarned. Getting her out of there was the best thing we could do. Thankfully, she is doing so much better now.

At first when I visited this facility I thought that no way would I want to have my mother live here, but after a while of visiting the place I got to see that it had many positives. The place seems very old and the elevator slow and when I was on the floors the place seemed institutionalized. There is nothing fancy, the rooms are small and there are sometimes bad odors outside the rooms. However, the good thing about this place is that they cater to a very diverse clientele and that they do take medicaid and it is affordable. I got the feeling that the nursing home really tries to work with you and to accommodate your needs. For example they will let you paint the walls and decorate and bring in your own furniture. The staff are very friendly and help you to feel at home. There is also a free parking lot and the lobby is large and homey and the receptionist is very kind. The main dining room has a lot of wooden trim so if you like old buildings this would be the place for you. So while this place is not the Ritz, I do think it is affordable and accommodating.
