    Review

    Consulate Healthcare of Norfolk has received mixed reviews from visitors and family members of residents. Some have had negative experiences and found the facility to be horrible in terms of staff behavior, communication, cleanliness, and general environment. They feel that their loved ones are not being treated with dignity and respect, and the staff is rude and unprofessional. Additionally, there have been complaints about the outdated decor, lack of engagement activities for residents, and a noticeable smell in the facility.

    One person described the facility as smelling awful upon entering and having small rooms with malfunctioning heating systems. They were appalled by the conditions and expressed their intention to remove their father from the facility as soon as possible. Another reviewer mentioned the lack of responsiveness from staff when trying to address concerns or communicate with specific residents. They also noted that employees were often seen walking around with masks improperly worn.

    However, not all reviews were negative. Some individuals spoke positively about their experiences at Consulate Healthcare of Norfolk. They commended Administrator Celia for her helpfulness and praised the facility for providing top rehab and nursing care. These reviewers mentioned that the federal government and Medicare had given the facility three stars.

    Another reviewer stated that they enjoyed their time at Consulate Healthcare of Norfolk and found all staff members, especially Celia, to be very helpful. Similarly, someone who had undergone short-term rehab at this facility described it as doing a wonderful job and recommended it to friends and family.

    There were also reviews that acknowledged improvements in certain areas over time. One person appreciated how much better the building looked compared to a previous visit, highlighting cleaner conditions and a more pleasant atmosphere. Another former resident shared a positive experience during their stay in October 2015, praising the nurses for providing good care while emphasizing clean rooms and halls.

    However, there were still several negative comments regarding neglectful staff behavior and inadequate medical attention for residents. One reviewer expressed concern over their relative's decline after being admitted to the facility, citing instances of staff ignoring requests for a doctor visit and failing to address concerns about overmedication. Another stated that their friend experienced rude and inattentive nurses' aides, unsanitary conditions such as bed bugs and roaches, and medication administration issues.

    Overall, the reviews paint a picture of Consulate Healthcare of Norfolk as a facility with both positive and negative aspects. While some individuals had positive experiences and praised specific staff members or services, others encountered issues such as poor communication, neglectful behavior from staff members, uncleanliness, and inadequate care.
