Overall Review of St Elizabeth Home

common 3 reviews mention this

Rehab and therapy can help

Residents frequently describe rehab and therapy as a bright spot.

Several reviews say rehab or therapy went well, including physical rehab and general therapy during a short stay. A few residents also note that even when other parts of care fell short, therapy was still good. That pattern suggests therapy is one of the more reliable experiences reported by families.

common 12 reviews mention this

Staff kindness and attentiveness stand out

Many residents and families describe staff as kind and attentive.

Across multiple reviews, families praise staff for being kind, helpful, and responsive to residents’ needs. Some describe feeling relieved because care needs were being met, while others say visiting felt reassuring because staff treated their loved ones well. Even one positive review that mentioned a call-button delay still emphasized overall care and getting help when needed.

caveat 4 reviews mention this

Call light response is inconsistent

Some reviews report slow or missed responses to call buttons.

A recurring concern is delayed assistance when residents use the call light, including one review describing a multi-hour delay. Other reviewers say they struggled to reach medical professionals or that staff did not respond after lights were turned on. Even a generally positive rehab experience mentions occasional lack of quick response, reinforcing that timing can vary.

caveat 3 reviews mention this

Cleanliness concerns come up repeatedly

Some families report problems with room and bathroom cleanliness.

Several negative reviews describe areas of the facility that did not appear to be cleaned regularly, including bathrooms and bedrooms. Other comments go further, citing issues like strong odors and residents left with waste or personal items missing. These are described as persistent enough to stand out against otherwise positive feedback about other services.

caveat 3 reviews mention this

Food quality is mixed

Dining quality is not consistently described the same way.

Some reviews say the food was good, while others call it not very good or describe it as bland. One reviewer also notes the food was acceptable for the mainly elderly residents and highlights specific comfort foods. Overall, dining appears to land somewhere in the middle depending on the reviewer and stay.
