Review

Stonehenge American Fork has garnered a complex array of reviews, reflecting vastly different experiences from its patients and their families. From commendations praising the quality of care to severe criticisms highlighting alarming instances of negligence, the facility presents a varied picture for those seeking rehabilitation or long-term care.

Some patients have shared glowing reviews of their time at Stonehenge, emphasizing the kindness and professionalism displayed by the staff. Many former patients noted that they were treated with respect and attention during their recovery periods. One reviewer, a retired nurse, lauded the staff's adherence to hygiene protocols and their thoughtful interactions, noting that despite being understaffed, workers remained dedicated to providing quality care. The physical therapy team received particular praise for helping patients regain mobility while maintaining a positive environment. Such accounts paint Stonehenge as a place where compassion blends with competence.

In stark contrast are accounts from families who experienced catastrophic lapses in care. One grieving family recounted how their mother suffered due to inadequate medication management, resulting in her unresponsive state before they had to call 911 themselves for emergency assistance. This distressing situation points to systemic issues with communication among staff members regarding patient needs and treatment protocols. Another review detailed an incident where a patient was overdosed on morphine—an oversight that left lasting trauma for both the individual and their loved ones. These serious claims raise profound concerns about patient safety at Stonehenge.

However, some reviews suggest that the shortcomings may not be widespread but rather dependent on specific staff members or shifts. One review brought attention to an individual nurse who created a negative atmosphere through her actions towards both coworkers and patients alike. Despite some caregivers excelling in compassion and skill, the inconsistency in staffing quality can lead to devastating consequences when adequate training or attentiveness is lacking during critical moments.

While many patients reported feeling well-cared-for during physical therapies and general interactions with nursing staff, others consistently expressed frustration over insufficient support during crucial times—like having urgent bathroom needs unmet due to slow response times after pressing call buttons. An apparent lack of urgency in addressing such basic requirements raises questions about how facilities can prioritize profit margins over essential patient care.

Ultimately, Stonehenge American Fork stands as an example of how variability in healthcare delivery can lead to significantly different outcomes depending on individual experiences within its walls. While several patients emerged with positive memories and successful recoveries thanks to attentive staff, others walked away traumatized by negligence that could have been prevented with consistent communication and adequate training among all employees—something vital in any healthcare setting where lives are at stake. Therefore, potential patients or families must weigh these dramatically contrasting experiences carefully when considering this facility for rehabilitation or long-term care options.
