Overall Review of Riverview Jefferson Health and Rehab

caveat 29 reviews mention this

Care quality draws serious complaints

Many residents and families describe unsafe or neglected care at this facility.

A large share of reviews describe neglect and unsafe outcomes, including pressure injuries and infections, and multiple accounts of serious problems that families say required hospital care.

Cleanliness and hygiene are criticized

Several reviews mention cleanliness and hygiene issues inside resident care.

Multiple reviews point to sanitation problems such as being unclean or “unsanitized,” along with concerns about soiled conditions and inadequate bathing or hair care. Several accounts also describe pressure sores or wound concerns, including rooms that residents or families say looked neglected. A few reviewers do praise specific staff members, but cleanliness and hygiene complaints show up repeatedly.

Reviews frequently describe understaffing and slow responses when help is needed.

Many reviewers say staffing levels were too low, including accounts of long waits for pain help and delays when someone needed assistance after falls. Several families also describe difficulty getting calls answered or medication passed on time. At the same time, a smaller number of reviews credit unit management or named caregivers with improvements in communication and day-to-day attention.

Some caregivers show strong communication

A few reviews highlight compassionate, communicative caregivers.

Some families describe staff members who are kind, welcoming, and communicative, including regular updates involving doctors and care team members. One reviewer says unit management and respiratory management helped change the situation after initial concerns.
