Iroquois Nursing Home

Don't put your loved ones here

My father was there for 3 1/2 weeks, came out weaker and sicker than when he went in, swollen, bruised arm, weak, lethargic, soaked with urine and diarrhea when I picked him up. His glasses got broken, no one called us to let us know. No matter who you speak with -no one knows anything. Staff was giving us a terrible time about having him discharged to an assisted living facility. He's in the hospital now and too weak to stand, sit or eat. Staff lied to all the family members. His clo...

July 2020- If I could give this facility minus stars I would have. My father went in there for rehab. Was doing pretty good when he went in, the staff there are not great at communicating with family or each other. His glasses were broken and no one notified us. I guess it’s when he fell which I should give a star for that because they did tell us. My dad came out of there after 3 weeks of rehab and went to the hospital not being able to walk, feed himself, he had a UTI, dehydrated, had ulc...

A resident at the Iroquois home in Jamesville tested positive for Covid 19. Families were NOT notified. Only through a news report was that fact revealed. When checking on a loved one, a nurse expressed "not to worry" - the person had been discharged. This is alarming!! We know the virus is extremely contagious and spreads quickly through nursing homes. Working on getting my loved one out of there!!!

The RN's are pretty cool. They will answer questions you have. The rest of the staff is clueless about anything. There are 2 CNA's per shift per floor each floor consisting of 40 patients. Needless to say if something is needed, you will wait for a while. Staff changes almost as much as bed linens. There is no or very little communication between staff(some of whom you can barely understand due to language). You can hear X about your loved one during one shift, then hear something completely dif...

My mother is currently at Iroquois. She has been there for several years. When she was first admitted, the floor was adequately staffed, and the care at least adequate. Over the years staffing has been significantly cut, with at times only 2 -3 nursing aides and one LPN on the unit to care for 40 residents with health care, dementia issues and behavioral problems. As a result of new management, I have seen an increase in the number of falls and patients with obvious and visible bruising, as we...

Iroquois Nursing Home is very good. It's very clean, spacious, comfortable and appealing. The staff is very good. The food quality is average. My mom doesn’t participate in activities, but they have card games, musical nights, and balloon festivals. The rooms are very spacious and clean. The staff is very friendly, nice, and attentive.

I could not have asked for a better place to put my dad. The care was outstanding and so professional. I felt as though every person working there really cared about my dad’s comfort. Thank you all for your outstanding care and comfort both to my father and me.

My mother was at Iroquois in February of 2017 for a month and I felt her care was very good. When my mother needed to go to a nursing home again in May, her care or lack there of contributed to her death. I noticed there was less staff and was told people had quit. My mother had heart failure and kidney disease and was a diabetic. Her fluid levels had to be constantly monitored because of the heart failure and kidney disease. The second week she was there she had symptoms that were ignored...

My wife who has dementia is adjusting well to living at Iroquois. The caregivers are so nice and she has already made some friends. They have good food and the place is very clean. I am very pleased with this facility.

We chose Iroquois because it seemed to be top notch compared to the others.....It was the best decision we could have ever made. Dad stayed at Iroquois after his heart condition and mom was there after her surgery. The entire staff, including the nurse's assistants cared for my parents as if they were one of their family members. The dietary staff, social workers and therapy departments are equally as fantastic. Dad had an exceptionally complex medication schedule, and the staff did a great jo...

My Mother was a resident for eight months until she recently passed away. My family and I could not have been happier with the care she received. She was treated with dignity and compassion. Her medical needs were addressed as well as her emotional ones. I can not say enough about the staff - from the nurse managers on the 3rd floor to the cleaning people. It was a very positive experience. My family and I wish to extend a heartfelt thank you.

I was placed in Iroquois after having back surgery. I was placed in a room with a 90 year old incompetent woman. I was place on a ward that had a stomach bug going around. Which quickly made me sick. (Nausea) with nothing in my stomach....pain pills were given to me to make me even sicker. 99.6 temp. I could not wait until the morning until I could physically discharge myself the hell out of there! Worst experience ever....

Right now my relative is in Iroquois Nursing Home. It is a temporary facility, just for rehab. I like everything there. Everything was fine and we're very happy with it. The facility is very clean and you don't feel like it's a rehab/nursing-type home. It's very nice.

My dad was not well cared for as we found mysterious bruises on his shoulder, accidents in his wheel chair, placed in bathroom for long period of time no attendance, never saw the doctor, never but heard of him only, nurses care was poor giving him water at his foot end and not by his bed side, weird! left at dining table with his head down in his plate of food, not helping with his feeding, he received only twice rehab and never helped with his walking, male nurse rolled him into shower and le...

I think it's a nice facility. I believe this was developed by the doctors of the hospital so they could have a way of getting their patients out of their chronic visits. The nurses and staff changes now and then but I was quite impressed with the way they handle the patients in there. They seemed to care for the patients and they seemed involved with them.
