My husband is now in Ashland Nursing and Rehabilitation Center. For the most part, they're very good. I don't like how far away he is, but they're okay. He is in the memory care part, so they all pretty much have Alzheimer's in different stages. There has been a couple of incidences where he has been hit a couple of times, which I'm not happy about, but I think that's probably going to happen no matter where he goes. For the most part, I am very happy there. The staff is very nice and very caring. But like everywhere, they probably are understaffed. I think they're very caring. My husband doesn't like any condiments like ketchup, mustard, or mayonnaise. And when they serve them something with mayonnaise in it, they will give him a grilled chicken or something like that and will replace the meal. So they're very good like that. With regards to cleanliness, they do a pretty good job. Every day they come and clean. They have activities, too. They have rehab because it is a rehab place.

This is by far one of the worst long term care facilities that I have visited. Their unit that houses dementia patients often has 1 nursing aide to care for 20-30 patients. My family member was put to bed with wet clothing that he had voided in and his room smelled like urine at all times. We had to request that his room be cleaned .ore than once & his floor scrubbed because of urine & feces. His clothing was lost even after his name was written on them with indelible black ink. The meals are substandard. If you love your relative please do not place him in this place with poor staff, poor, non nutritious meals & unclean. I have never seen them engage in activities with their dementia patients. No activities as all. Your loved one. , particularly if he or she has dementia, will receive poor care. I would give this facility a rating of F- ( F minus). Run, don't walk, away from this place!!

My father - 95 - when discharged from the hospital after a fall was placed for 5 weeks at Ashland Nursing & Rehabilitation Center. The PT (Physical Therapy), OT (Occupational Therapy) and Speech/Cognition folks were all very good - several were extraordinary including the head of PT, Yusef, and his PT associate, Dave. They all had incredible patience with my father who was cooperative some days and less so other days. They encouraged him to press on just beyond his comfort zone so that his health and ability to perform daily functions were as good as could be hoped. The PT room is moderately large, clean and well set up. The key though, are the people who went beyond expectations and in terms of genuine care, expertise and patience. The staff were also excellent in working with the patient's family - explaining their plans and efforts with the patient. And providing guidance for after discharge. Based on just the PT, OT and Speech staff, I would have rated Ashland at 5 stars - the facility is not new and there were occasional nursing/aid staffing challenges - so my rating is 4/5 stars.

The staff at Ashland Nursing and Rehabilitation Center was nice and pleasant, but when we first came in, there were no linens, towels, soap, paper towels, and things in the room. The place wasn't what I call "clean." My husband had fallen twice while he was there and hurt his arm. With him, he needed more than the care he was getting. He needed somebody to help him. I was there late in the afternoon and his tray for breakfast was still sitting in the room. Plus, they lost some of his clothes and I'm still trying to get results from that. When we brought him home, his legs were real swollen, because he was spending the whole day in the wheelchair. So, it just wasn't a good environment. Maintenance was not good either. I went in there and there were crumbs on the floor, under the bed, and things that had dropped and nobody got them up. It's all one floor though, which of course is nice, but I wouldn't recommend this place at all.

I realize that Ashland does not have the newest paint, the newest flooring, the newest furniture or, frankly, the newest anything. However, the love, devotion, compassion, and caring I witnessed staff members give to my father-in-was absolutely astounding and brought me to tears. Despite SEVERE understaffing, NO resident was left without a kind word, a little joke, a pat on the hand, and my FIL -- who was completely incoherent and bed-bound was treated with nothing but love and respect by Keisha and Kate. He was ALWAYS clean, turned, and had his hair brushed. Say what you will about the appointments of the place, I'll take loving, dedicated staff over the newest decor and freshest paint ANY day!

My father-in-law is in Ashland Nursing and Rehabilitation Center. They have 24-hour care and one-on-one care. Everybody's very helpful. The nurses are available around the clock to answer questions. The rooms are either single or shared rooms. They have a TV, dresser, bathroom, blankets, beds, and air conditioning. They do arts and crafts. They have bingo. They get haircuts.

My family member has just arrived and already has been treated with the up most disrespect. I have better communication skills than all the nurses there they have no call button for my loved one and she is in really bad condition. I suggest you start paying close attention towards your patients before someone dies. It has the worst smell and is gross and is not sanitary what’s so ever it’s really sad that I can’t go to sleep without worrying that my mother may or may not make it through the night.

THIS HAS TO BE A LAST RESORT. The facility does not tell you what's going on. They have cleaned the place up a bit since I last visited my a friend there, but it's a different experience now that a family member of mine is a resident. The staff will feed them and leave them hanging on most everything else. If your family member uses adult diapers, you better teach them how to change themselves before allowing them to come to this place. If your loved one needs around the clock care this is not the place you want unless you can train them to be sick on demand from 8-4. Care aft 430pm is substandard at best. The place is short staffed, the receptionists will tell you off rudely if you catch them on a bad day. Sorry for rambling. This place is unaccommodating. They have a long way to go as a so called skilled nursing facility. Lord my prayer is that you help the people there including my family member. Amen

It is always hard to be put in a situation where you can no longer care for your loved one at home. Home is the best place to be surrounded by people who want you to succeed and become stronger and more independent. Our experience is really more than just an experience at this facility, it is a family's worse nightmare. I will only summarize the care our loved one received since it is a long story with event after event that continued for 14 days until this person passed away. This facility is a Veteran contracted and due to the COVID-19 pandemic the Veteran facility had rules placed for no admissions. Our loved one was bedridden due to weakness caused by a loss of blood from a duel ulcer. After the ulcer was treated in the hospital he needed to begin physical therapy and occupational therapy until he was strong enough to come home. During his stay at this facility he first was put in a room for 14 days (which he never made out of because he only lived 13 days) to be quarantined from the other residents. He was unable to get out of bed therefor he required a bedpan, food, water, medicine and any other items to be brought to him. Let me just say at this point he was neglected by all means possible. He had a stroke 4 years prior to this admission which left his left side weak and his voice very challenging to understand. This Veteran needed total care which he did not receive. This facility is considered inadequately staffed with staff members who are uneducated, lacking in compassion and lazy. The purpose of my review is not to tell you our whole experience because I am sure what I would say would not be permitted. I am sending a very loud message to those who are thinking of putting their loved ones here to reconsider. Read the reviews and believe them as this family unfortunately found out the hard way.

Ashland was terrible. It smelled, they never did what they said they're going to do for my father, and they never came when called. The food wasn't served, or it was cold, and medicine was not given on time. The nurses' station, and the rooms were dirty, and the place smelled like urine. They didn't change my father when he needed to be changed, they didn't give him a bath when he had to take a bath. However, the physical therapy was great.

I remember you had to sign in at the front desk as a visitor. The other patients were hard to get along with because they were old and many were non-verbal or non-responsive. The staff weren't that great because they didn't know how to deal with the residents, didn't know what to do with them. Most of the patients ate together in the cafeteria, except for the ones who were stuck in their rooms, they brought them trays. They tried to have group activities for the residents, like art, music, games and religious activities. The interior was not particularly well decorated, it was mostly white like a hospital although they did allow patients to decorate their individual rooms some. Each of the rooms had its own bathroom, most patients had to share a room with another patient, but there were a few individual rooms. It was a one story brick building heading west just outside of town.
