Review Summary
The following is an AI generated summary of the reviews of the community from across the web.
Bel Pre Healthcare has received a mix of reviews from former patients, their families, and even staff. Positive feedback highlights the excellent care provided by the occupational therapy (OT) staff, with patients noting significant improvements in mobility and daily functions. The rehabilitation department, including physical therapy, has been praised for its effectiveness and motivational approach. Some reviewers have specifically mentioned the high quality of food, which is not typical of institutional settings, and the overall pleasant atmosphere created by a caring staff.
However, there are numerous negative reviews that raise serious concerns about the quality of care and facility management. Complaints include neglectful treatment of patients, such as leaving them in dirty conditions, slow response times to patient calls, and inadequate medical care leading to severe health issues like infected wounds and bedsores. Some reviews describe the facility as unsanitary and poorly maintained, with issues ranging from mold in rooms to problems with pest control. There are also criticisms of the nursing staff being apathetic and untrained, particularly in specialized care needs like stoma care. Additionally, some reviewers have expressed dissatisfaction with the facility's administration, describing it as unresponsive and uncaring towards patients' well-being.
Despite the mixed reviews, some patients and employees have found Bel Pre to be a welcoming and family-like environment, praising the teamwork among staff and the small, intimate setting of the facility. However, the overwhelmingly negative reviews suggest a need for significant improvements in patient care, facility maintenance, and staff training.
