Bishop Drumm Skilled Nursing

My sister was at Bishop Drumm for two weeks of "skilled care" in September 2024 following major surgery. DO NOT put your loved one in this place. When a patient pushes the call button for help, a silent light above their door lights up in the hallway, but there is no other notice to staff, so if no one sees that light, no one comes. There were multiple times when I observed staff gathered together laughing and chatting instead of working with patients or looking for those lights. Medications m...

After my life altering accident, the cnas, nurses and staff were caring and have put me on a great road to recovery. They created a comfortable, healing environment & helped me set up my room and electronics to feel as close to home as possible. Thank you all so much! This place has an outstanding therapy dept. They have given me the most wonderful gift of teaching me to walk again! Thank you everyone!

I’ve been a resident at Bishop Drumm for 3 years. Throughout my time as a resident, staff are always willing to help me with all my needs and problems. I’ve had several special requests and they make me feel like they are always doable. The food is great and I enjoy the special luncheons they provide for residents. I understand this is has been a challenging time during the COVID 19 Pandemic, and the staff have done a great job of helping all the residents.

Their hair is never combed or face washed. Same caked on food on face for three days! They are left isolated in their room each day ; fully inclined in a chair they cannot independently operate for d...

My mom was a resident for 2 years which is about 1 year 9 months to long. In the time she was there she had to BEG for her showers, sat for HOURS with her call light on, was told to shut up and called not so nice names by an aide. The housekeeping was not up to standards as when we moved her out there was 2 years of dust and dirt under her chair and dresser, DISGUSTING to say the least, She was left in her same clothes for 4 straight days and nights and went 9 days without a prescibed medicine f...

With so many options, consider a different place for your loved ones. My mom was in skilled care to be short term stay after a hospitalization and a urinary type surgery so she needed to get her strength back and to start eating better. Staff were very busy. No one available in a timely manner to help her to the restroom so frequently she would have to wet the bed. Limited PT given so she laid in bed majority of the time. Minimal assistance with meals. On a Monday, she started vomiting an...
