Reviews
Here’s what our residents and families are saying about us.
“This was our first experience at United Hebrew and what a great one it was! The staff was wonderful, knowledgeable, and available. My mother was treated with dignity and respect, and her every need was responded to. The facility is well-kept, and the PT staff did wonders. I highly recommend United Hebrew!"
Grace O.
“My mom was a resident here for almost two years. The nurses, doctor, and aides were all wonderful. She received excellent care and was treated like family. I visited her several times a week, and when I arrived, I’d always find her in the recreation room: singing, chatting, or engaged in activity. My family and I are extremely grateful that she was at United Hebrew, and we would highly recommend it to others. “
Sue G.
“Placing my mother into a nursing facility was one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do. From the moment I met Quinetta Padgett, Mom’s assigned social worker, I felt relief. She was warm and understanding. All of the staff have made me feel confident that my mother is in the best of hands. I have come to know them not just as my mother’s caretakers, but as friends. I am grateful for their service. No facility goes the extra mile for a patient like the staff at United Hebrew.”
Diana D.
“Excellent nursing home, rehab, and assisted living facility! I have had three grandparents experience three different facilities on United Hebrew’s campus. The staff is incredible. The place is super clean, and they always have something going on. Everyone is friendly and makes you feel like family. They make your loved ones feel like they are their own. We are grateful for UH. Thank you.”
Victoria A.
“I am eternally grateful for everyone who cares for my mom at United Hebrew. For 50 years, I knew exactly how my mother preferred things. Now you are the ones who know her best! Thanks for all that you do.
Joan B.
“I spent three weeks at United Hebrew for short-term rehab following reconstructive knee surgery. The care from the nursing, PT, and OT staff was excellent. And the huge private room was a plus. From what I have seen, all of your patients are treated with nothing but outstanding care. Thank you, United Hebrew. If I ever have to have rehab again, I will be back!”
