Review

Mount Olivet Home in Mt. Oliver has received mixed reviews from individuals who have had experience with their services. One reviewer expressed dissatisfaction with the overall experience, stating that they would not recommend this facility to a relative. They highlighted issues such as understaffing, where employees lacked the knowledge on how to provide water or medication to their incoherent father. This led to long waiting times for assistance, leaving the patient without the necessary care. In addition, the room was consistently dirty and his air conditioner was not functioning properly until multiple requests were made.

Another reviewer had a more positive experience with Mount Olivet Home. Although they were unable to visit their mother due to current circumstances, they found the staff to be incredible in terms of interaction during video conferences. The meals were described as standard but satisfactory, as the reviewer appreciated being able to give input regarding their mother's menu options. Furthermore, their mother was given a room with a window that allowed sunlight in, which made a significant difference in her overall well-being and comfort.

However, another review contradicts these positive experiences by giving only two stars and expressing disappointment in their mother's care at Mount Olivet Home. The reviewer reported witnessing neglectful behavior from staff members who would ignore calls for assistance from patients ringing bells for help. Additionally, they mentioned issues with food quality and extended waiting times for basic hygiene needs like showers. Their mother experienced an injury due to delayed assistance when trying to go to the bathroom alone and waited four hours on the floor for help after breaking her shoulder. The review also criticized communication from the facility's business office while their mother was recovering from surgery.

Amidst these mixed experiences, one reviewer had a positive impression of Mount Olivet Careview Home. They noted that although there were no apartments available, assisted living and nursing home options were provided. The facility was undergoing remodeling with plans for more private rooms on additional floors in the near future. The reviewer commended the dining experience, where meals were served at tables instead of on trays and patients were taken out of their rooms. Additionally, they highlighted the availability of a memory care floor for individuals requiring specialized attention.

On the other hand, one reviewer visited Mount Olivet Home and had a less favorable encounter. They felt that the main entry/greeting area was disorganized and lacked attention towards clients and their families. The memory care floor seemed inactive during their visit, with blocked activity areas and limited staff interaction with residents. Although a private room was shown, it was described as very small. Overall, the facility gave off a gloomy atmosphere.

In conclusion, reviews for Mount Olivet Home in Mt. Oliver present a mixed perspective on the quality of care provided. While some reviewers praised aspects such as staff interactions and specific amenities offered, others expressed concerns regarding understaffing, neglectful behavior from employees, subpar food quality, delayed assistance for basic needs, and poor communication from the business office. These varied experiences highlight the importance of thoroughly researching and visiting different facilities before making a decision about long-term care for loved ones.
