My dad had the pleasure of staying at Cedar Crest when he was discharged from the hospital for rehabilitation. I like to share my experience and what occurred during our stay. When my dad was transferred from the hospital to this facility he was welcomed by the staff as he entered. Being overwhelmed with all the documents I need to take care of Jeanne walked me through all the documents and explained everything that was being signed. Maria was the nurse that was in charge when my dad. She went over all the medications and doctor's orders and informed me that my dad was in great hands. During the stay, the staff will ask you to come in and go talk about the facility and how they plan to help you. I was introducing individuals that would deal with my father's physical therapy, medical needs, dietary needs, entertainment, social worker. Don’t be overwhelmed with this meeting everyone was very nice and wants to know your expectations and how they can help. Every week, you will be called by someone, who will oversee the patient's stay and share the progress. In our case, it was Vina she was the physical therapist director. She even updated us when we visited just to let us know his progress. When I check in with my dad he would always say that she had already visited that day and had a great conversation with her. During the stay, my dad was very happy with the nurses and staff that took care of him. I feel that everyone there was lively and energetic. There is always someone around if you need any help. Of course, be mindful they are helping others as well so be patient. My dad’s doctor at the facility was doctor Mehran Jamali, MD, he was a great doctor and genuinely care about my dad’s wellbeing. I only wish we meet him sooner so he can be my dad’s primary physician. In our case, our family came frequently and got to know the staff very well. Everyone was very helpful and did what they can to make the stay for my dad comfortable. As the time came for us to take my dad home Katherine and Lennie made sure we had what was necessary before my dad came home. I am grateful to these people and all the help that they did for us. If you need a facility that cares about you (family and patient) during a tough time this is the place you want to be at.
