Medilodge of Westwood

I’m happy to be going home. Feels like I’m leaving my second family and will miss you all. I had a great stay and will return if ever needed a rehab stay again.

On March 10, 2021, Virginia came to us for Long Term Care. Virginia worked hard at building her endurance and strength and graduated from wheelchair to walker. On April 15, 2021, Virginia was able to discharge back to the community! We are so proud of her and her hard work!

I’m doing well- I wasn’t bad, but now I’m great!

I would like to acknowledge that nursing homes are not hospitals. I have a brother that had a horrible stroke and is now diagnosed with vascular dementia. It has been a real struggle as this is the seventh facility he has resided at. The one shining light in all this tragedy has been Kristi Uribe. Kristi possesses such an amazing attitude and complete devotion to the patients at Medilodge. I have witnessed this throughout my brothers care; she is such a wonderful wonderful person, she has made my brothers stay and care remarkable. I feel we won’t have my brother much longer, but by the grace of God, Kristi has come into his life when we needed it the most. My sister and I cannot thank Kristi enough for the care that she has shown for my brother.

Thank you for all that you did for me and for all that you do for those in your care.
There are some remarkable people here and I’ll never forget you.
Don’t think your kindness and your skill goes unnoticed. We noticed!
May God bless all of you and your efforts to make a difference.
Keep on doing this good work, take care of yourselves, take time to enjoy life and smell the roses once in a while because you truly deserve it.

This facility made me feel loved and cared for. Even late at night when I needed help, they were always there. The physical therapy team really stood out because they really do care about your recovery. They make you believe in yourself. Also, the nursing assistants are the best. They care for you with love! This is the best place to recover!

Everyone here was so kind and very helpful to me.

Thank you for all that you did for my grandmother, Dorothy Erikson, and for all your special help. Words alone cannot truly express my gratitude!

I would return to MediLodge of Westwood if needed. All of the departments really did all that they could to help me! MediLodge of Westwood’s staff were understanding and helpful. Alelghsha was very good to me when I was there in explaining things that I didn’t understand and helping me understand.

The care was great at MediLodge at Westwood was great! I chose this center because of its reputation. They were quick on answering call lights. I like it here even though I can’t smoke on premises.

There is a fantastic team of nursing, physical, and OT personnel that helped me regain my strength at MediLodge of Westwood. The activities department is awesome.

I wish that I could have more time at MediLodge of Westwood. It was very helpful and the staff and therapy program were all great!

I have a CNA that has been taking care of me 90% of the time. Her name is Santasha Gaines. She has done a wonderful job with me. She makes sure that I am washed and cleaned, have clean bedding and clothes or a nightgown on. She should be commended for her actions towards myself & other patients.

Thank You.

I chose MediLodge of Westwood because I felt that the center has a good reputation for rehabilitation. Amy, the PT, and OT staff are professional and take a vital interest in developing a plan of activities to address needs with the goal of getting you strong. The staff, nurses, and aides all take care of your every need cheerfully twenty-four hours a day.

MediLodge of Westwood is a good place. Therapy is very persistent. I would recommend MediLodge of Westwood for anyone looking for a rehabilitation center. They have a good therapy team. Rooms are nice; especially the private rooms with a TV and refrigerator so that I can have the food and drinks that I like. I like the staff here; they are very nice. The other residents are awesome and make sure you get to know them. There are a lot of nice activities here that give you something to do.

I chose MediLodge of Westwood because it is close to home. All of the team members were fantastic and very caring. I would recommend this facility to others.

I love it at Medilodge of Westwood. I love this place and am so glad I chose it sight unseen. I would rather live here than at home. People are so nice. Everyone says hello to me as they pass my room. They all know me and that is such a comforting feeling.

Oh my gosh, I love Medilodge of Westwood. I never thought I would be able to sit up and see my legs again. Now, I can sit up on my own and see the definition in my legs. I wanted so much to continue with your outpatient therapy because I knew what you could do for me. Nobody else took the time and were as caring as what Medilodge of Westwood has been. I would recommend this place to anyone. To me, there is no other place to go for therapy.

My first time here, I was too sick to get into anything, but the second time around, my therapy was wonderful. All of my therapists were really good to me, and my rapid progress shows it.

This is the best place to learn how to walk again. They are friendly and caring. I thank all of them for the great job they did.

The staff has shown patience and determination and I am thankful for all their help.
