St Jude Nursing Center

Two years ago my niece moved from this facility to go home. Thank God! This place is old, outdated, poorly managed and under staffed with supplies in short supply sometimes. It is not an uplifting place to be ill at.

I did a tour at St. Jude Nursing Center. I was impressed. The hospitality and genuine feeling of welcoming was over whelming Not to often do you find an environment so inviting in the healthcare industry. I am delighted with the experience. .

Upon entering St. Jude Nursing Center I was welcomed with friendly staff. My mother felt very comfortable with the facility with not only the staff members but other residents. I absolutely adored the dedicated staff at St. Jude Nursing Center. The therapy team helped my mom walk again! Its a very lively place during the day. Activities are always going on. The social worker helped my mom get into subsidized housing! The staff at St. Jude Nursing Center really took the time and dedication to help us throughout this whole process!

I am a registered nurse. I was transfered to st Jude for therapy after a hospital stay. Immediately upon arrival I had a sense of doom. It was very dark, hardly no lights were on, almost like they didn't want to use electricity. It smelled horribly of urine and feces. The residents lined the hallway at least thirty of them. Most of them extremely confused in a state of their clothes being undressed, falling out of their wheelchairs. They transferred me to my room. It was a four room ward. Again very dark, cinder block walls, all wiring exposed on ceiling and walls. Not tucked behind a finished wall or ceiling. To my horror it was filthy. Cob webs thick on the ceilings and hanging down. The division curtains were so dirty they were actually dis colored gray. The netting at top was torn to shreds and so dirty it was a dark shade of gray instead of white. Needless to say I was not there even half an hour and left. I don't know how the state allows it to be open. Who ever owns it should be ashamed of themselves.

I visited Saint Jude Rehabilitation and Nursing Center in 2010. In general, I thought Saint Jude Rehabilitation and Nursing Center, was an excellent choice for someone who is looking for a beautiful small private elegant and classy nursing facility for a friend or family member. The grounds of the facility are private and beautiful sets back off too itself in a cul-de-sac setting. The common areas of the facility are wooded looking with pine trees surrounding it and the scenery is so beautiful to look at; all seasons of the year. The surrounding areas of the neighborhood are also wooded looking, and have that cozy cul-de-sac appearance as well. You can imagine the picture perfect view in every season of the year and the winter is just too gorgeous to try to imagine. The residents rooms are beautiful and also have a picture perfect view their rooms are a combination of earth tone and pastel colors combined together to compliment the wooded view surrounding the facility. The facility does not smell and the facility also is a Christian based facility. There is an increased amount of prayer and mediation time for the residents. The country air surrounding the facility sends off a country fresh scent in the spring and summer, in the fall it sends off a fresh smell of fresh fall leaves and tree bark, in the winter it sends off a fresh pine scent because of surrounding pine trees that surround the facility. It is a perfect place for someone that loves to be in touch with their Christian denomination and enjoy a cul-de-sac environment and atmosphere and that just enjoy being around some nice people. The staff and management of the facility are very nice, professional, task, team, oriented in their job duties and performance and they treat their residents like family. I think the residents receive excellent and professional care there. While I was there, I noticed that the residents were having a prayer and they were being served, coffee, tea, and hot chocolate among various other snacks to eat such as cake, cookies, donuts, and potato chips etc. The residents conveyed to me that they love it there. Some of the residents were going home and they conveyed to me that they were spoiled by the staff there and that they hated to leave there. I would give Saint Jude Rehabilitation and Nursing Center a five star rating for their excellence and expertise in patient care. Overall, Saint Jude Rehabilitation and Nursing Center is an excellent choice for someone who is looking for a placement for a friend or a family member. I would recommend it to everyone, anyone, or for anyone over 50 because I know that they would like it there and I know that they would do well there.
