Overall Review of Aperion Care Peru

common 20 reviews mention this

Staff are often described as helpful

Residents and families frequently describe the staff as helpful and responsive.

Many reviews focus on how friendly, caring, and ready-to-help the staff are, including comments about assistance with needs and questions. Several reviewers also mention clean, well-kept areas during visits, and describe the overall experience as respectful and supportive. A smaller set of reviews counters that with problems, including rude behavior or staffing concerns, but even some negative feedback still acknowledges certain staff members as fine or approachable.

common 6 reviews mention this

Food and diets are a mix

Dining is frequently mentioned, with both strong praise and serious complaints.

On the positive side, residents and families describe the food as amazing and highlight a dietary worker for doing specific meal preparation well. Other reviews describe breakdowns in daily nutrition—such as missed meals for diabetic residents and late medication timing tied to meal routines. One reviewer also questions whether diets are tailored to individual needs, even while describing the food itself as just OK in that context.

caveat 6 reviews mention this

Care concerns include missed basics

Some reviews report failures with daily care and medication follow-through.

A number of critical reviews describe care not being completed as expected, including reports of no showers over a two-week period and concerns about missed meals and meds. Others add that a diabetic resident’s meals were constantly forgotten and medications and bandage changes were late. In the rehab-focused criticism, a reviewer also describes staffing and therapy shortcomings, and another states that a loved one spent more time in the hospital than recuperating there.

caveat 4 reviews mention this

Cleanliness draws both praise and complaints

Cleanliness is uneven, with some reviewers calling it clean and others calling it dirty.

Several reviews say the building looks clean and well cared for, with one describing cleanliness and sanitary measures being done. Another reviewer also points to clean conditions during visits. But at least one review paints a very different picture, describing dirty hallways and a grim, hot environment in a dementia unit.

caveat 2 reviews mention this

Rehab experience is disputed

Rehab results are inconsistent across reviews.

Some reviewers specifically call the place a great option for rehab. Others strongly disagree, describing poor rehab outcomes, insufficient walker work, limited training after release, and medication- or therapy-related problems that they felt were not handled correctly.
