Despite reasonably nice rooms the staff is not really concerned about your needs. The staff may or may not come when you call them for help. I was in the bathroom waiting for more than 15 minutes for someone to come and help me. Finally I decided that I would have to move into the wheelchair by myself. I fell on the floor and I started screaming for help. Finally some non employee heard me screaming as loudly as I could, and told the staff that someone was calling for help. They eventually came and found me on the floor with my leg bleeding. A few of the staff cares about you, but the majority of the staff is indifferent. They do their job description kind of, some a little better than others.

Their physical therapy program is not as good as it has been in the past. I had been here before and it had been much better. The therapists now spend a lot of their time charting rather than with the patient. That way they don't have to do their charting at a later time.

There is a new unit set up for knee and hip replacement which is nice, but if you don't meet and come along as quickly as they want you to, you get sent down to the regular floor even if you signed up for the new unit and that is what you expected. I protested and was told that my choices were to leave or go to the other area. Whitehall does what it wants regardless of what is best for the patient.

Things that belong to you disappear frequently. Each time I have been here that has been the case. Do not bring anything that you want to go home with. Clothes have been stolen and there is no reimbursement for what has disappeared. Even though labels are put into things, they are gone. I have lost pillows, bath sheets, stuffed animals, and lots and lots of clothes. This time I decided not to send my clothes to the laundry and that has helped to keep my clothes from disappearing.

There are other rehab facilities that are far superior to Whitehall. I decided to give Whitehall another chance because of its location and my previous positive experience with physical therapy. But after this experience, I will definitely choose another facility. Their discharge routine is not based on what is best for you which also disturbs me greatly. You go when they say - you have no choice.

This nursing home is terrible. The administrator and social worker are cold hearted people who cut off my mother's care for no good reason.
