Overall Review of Good Samaritan Society - Millard

common 7 reviews mention this

Staff kindness comes through

Several residents and families describe staff as personable, professional, and supportive.

Positive reviews repeatedly highlight staff members being kind, personable, and quick to respond to needs like helping someone get dressed or answering questions. A few reviewers also describe the staff as professional and calming during a rehab stay, and they credit care and support with helping recovery. One reviewer notes staff were good even while criticizing management, which still points back to day-to-day interactions being better than the overall operation.

caveat 9 reviews mention this

Communication and response complaints

A recurring concern is delayed or inadequate help, including unresolved calls and medication issues.

Many negative reviews describe care not matching expectations, especially around responsiveness—call buttons not being answered, phones and hallway conversations instead of checking on residents, and families needing to get items or help themselves. Several also mention medication-related problems or record disputes, alongside situations where residents were not receiving the assistance they needed. Bathing and basic support come up as well, with at least one review describing missed bathing needs and another describing delays when requesting help.

caveat 2 reviews mention this

Hospice experience raises concerns

Some reviewers specifically question how hospice care and end-of-life respect are handled.

Two reviews focused on hospice describe experiences that felt unsafe or unprofessional, including concerns about how staff interacted during end-of-life moments. One reviewer also says hospice-related safety and checking on the resident did not happen as expected, even when staff were visible. These comments stand out because they are tied to the hospice context rather than general complaints.

common 3 reviews mention this

Rehabilitation and therapy varied

Therapy is praised by some, while others report limits or problems with rehab care.

A couple of reviewers describe rehab therapy as effective and supportive, including an experience where therapy helped with recovery. Another family says a loved one started on the rehabilitation side and later moved to the nursing home part while still liking the care. At the same time, at least one review alleges withheld medications and denial of walking or exercise during rehab, showing that rehab experiences were not consistent across reviewers.
