Happy Thursday!

Very compassionate and friendly environment.

I wanted to tell about my experience at Huntingdon Health and Rehabilitation. My first visit at Huntingdon Health and Rehabilitation, I could not walk by myself. When I got there, the Administrator, Alison was outside trimming the flowers. I knew right then that I was in the right place, where everyone worked as a team. Then, by the afternoon, I met some of the most amazing nurses and I met the head of the Departments, which made me feel so welcome and like I was in my own home. The Activities Director, Terry, keeps the residents busy, but more than that she keeps their minds busy and gives the love that they need and enjoy. The CNA's are angels here. They make sure that we get our showers and anything we need. They are wonderful and I believe they were sent by God. In fact, all employees were made for this career by our Lord. There is one nurse that tells patients every night, "I love you." That is what we need to hear. I had the best Physical Therapy team that helped me recover. They are angels also. They also have a wonderful hair stylist that comes every Tuesday. I recovered and went back home, but unfortunately, I fell and hurt myself again and guess where I came back to? I went back to the House of Angels. I am telling you if you ever need Therapy or need a Nursing Facility, come on out to Huntingdon Health and Rehabilitation for long or short-term visits. All the staff is amazing, from Nursing to Paula, the social worker who makes sure that all your needs and business is taken care of. Paula runs errands for us and makes sure all our needs are met. That angel has to have wings the way she flies around here. As with other facilities, we have our moments, but because of the staff, it is solved very quickly.

Mr. Finch was a retired Army man that spent most of his career working in Medical Equipment Maintenance. He came down suddenly with a cough that quickly became much worse & began to limit his ability to walk and take care of himself daily. He was admitted to the hospital for pneumonia & acute respiratory failure. Upon discharge from the hospital, he arrived at our facility for intense physical & occupational therapy. He was a hard worker & was dedicated to giving it his all every day. Mr. Finch required assistance with self-care tasks, transfers & functional mobility. Upon discharge, Mr. Finch was independent with mobility & required no assistant device. Mr. Finch was also independent with all activities of daily living. Mr. Finch stated, "Y'all are the best group I have ever worked around and the best group I ever worked with"! He also said if he ever had to come back to a facility for therapy, he would definitely be coming back to Huntingdon Health and Rehabilitation Center.

I chose this center because it is close to home. Louise, CNA, has been excellent! She goes above and beyond.

I chose Huntingdon Health Center because I heard it was close and my mother had been here before and said they are the best. This place is great and everyone is family. I will miss each and everybody and I will send people to this wonderful place.

The heart Dr. from hospital recommendation this facility for me to come to and said it was the best one on the list. Everyone at the facility was really nice! Megan Morgan, Tiffany Medlock, and Laura Perrigo, really help me a lot. Food was wonderful!

Therapy News for Huntingdon Health and Rehabilitation Mrs. Paula C, recently completed her therapy program at Huntingdon Health and Rehabilitation and proudly reported that she would "Definitely" recommend the therapy department at HHR. Mrs. Cary also reported that everyone has been so understanding and helpful and answered all her question. Not only did Mrs. Cary receive "great" therapy, she reported that the therapy department helped her make a plan to go home. They helped me develop a plan to get well and active again after all the trauma that I have been through in the hospitals. My main goal has always been to go back home and live a peaceful life with my husband and puppy. Therapy has helped me meet all my goals. Everyone in the therapy staff was wonderful but I mainly worked with Rusty for physical therapy. Rusty even went to my home and made suggestions to help make my home safer when I get home. Even though Mrs. Cary had great things to say about Huntingdon Health and Rehabilitation, she did recount that she wanted to stay safe and healthy and be able to stay home.

Don’t just take our advice---listen to one of our sweet residents tell her own testimony of being here at Huntingdon Health and Rehabilitation Center!

I just wanted to thank the staff at Huntingdon Health and Rehab for the care they gave my Mom while she was there. From the time of admission to settling in; they were always there to help- till the day she died (Labor day). Thanks to the kind, knowledgeable and caring staff Karen, Melissa, Henrietta and Kerri- there are no words to express our gratitude. No words can capture what we feel in our hearts. Thanks to the CNA's- Anastasia, Penny, Jennifer T., Eric, Tiffany and Teresa, they treated my mom with such dignity, care and compassion. I have been a hospice RN for 20 years and been in lots of nursing homes- yet the staff at Huntingdon should be the model that all nursing homes follow. The day before my mom became unresponsive I received a call from her "I love it here. Everyone is so nice!" If I have left out any one's name; I am so sorry. Thank you again! The best Staff ever!

I chose Huntingdon Health and rehabilitation for my sister based on the hospital social worker's recommendation. Barbara Melton, the therapy department, and Terry Lynch were just a few of the wonderful and loving staff that will leave a lasting impression.
