Our family is so thankful for the care our elder has received in the long term care dementia unit. Our loved one is happy, clean and the staff is supportive of our involved family. They helped make a difficult choice much easier by giving us peace of mind that she is well taken care of.

Most were good and for a while she seemed happy. Honestly, some of the staff were so good to mom. My mom was kind and sweet. But some staff lacked compassion. As her mind declined so did proper care. Many ppl from agencies in and out and sloppy. My mother was on hospice care and they didn’t have the meds on hand to make sure she was comfortable when she passed. There were only two! Morphine and Ativan. I was told that it expires but she had been declining rapidly for two weeks. She completely stopped eating for two weeks and barely drank. What more did they need to make a decision to be prepared? One day her mouth was bloody and so dry and painful for her. Neglect in my eyes because obviously someone didn’t clean her up after trying to force her eat and looked like they cut her mouth with a utensil. And it was a male nurse I was unfamiliar with that night. She said she had trouble swallowing and food was left in her mouth. She was probably like this for hours by the time I showed up for my daily cisit. Disturbing how poor mouth care was. I intend on filing this with the state. When someone is dying they no longer can eat, Advocate for your loved one :( They need it. Also, I was there everyday! I was the one who found her unresponsive then she came through as I yelled for help. My daughter arrived and we can clearly see she was drifting away, and instead of leaving us to be with my mom a nurse just stood in our way to stand there and watch her to hold her wrist while her breathing slowly became faint. We wanted to hold her hand as we knew she was dying. I know in my heart my mom knows we were there with her til the end. Not sure when someone is in hospice a nurse has to stand in the way of us being by her . We all know she’s dying! They don’t have proper training for a hospice patient. Wish the hospice nurse got there in time or else that wouldn’t have happened.
My Mom was here for almost 6 years. I have nothing but good things to say. The care she was given downstairs was good. The staff on unit 7 when she was moved was great.I can not say enough for the care she received on her last days The nurse that took care. Was very professional but so loving and caring to her I can't say enough
My father is currently at Catholic Memorial and I am so grateful for the care, professionalism, and attention he is getting. My father is very sick but his case manager, nurses, and Doctors are proactive in ordering tests and getting him the treatment he needs. He tells me that the women there take good care of him and baby him, and the food is really good. Much better than his previous rehab. I could not ask for more. His case manager Roseanna is honest and clear with me regarding his condition and mental state. I highly recommend Catholic Memorial for care of a loved one.
Hilda, the admission team and all of the staff from the 6th unit have been amazing making my loved one feel at peace and at home. Cant thank you enough. Highly recommend this rehab facility for your loved ones. Thank you Hilda!
