my mom has been in and out of nursing rehabs for almost 4 years. After her latest hospitalization she was sent to Essex ( yesterday ) though I was concerned if she had enough Medicare days left for the year. Well she didn't. And let me tell you how rude Essex Nursing Rehabilitation in Louisville on Lamborge Rd was about me picking her up ASAP. I understand these places are a business but she ( and residents of LTC'S ) ARE PEOPLE. NO ONE cared to help. Gave me a rickety wheelchair to get her down the hall amd were worried I guess that I was gonna fold it up and steal it. These places and this whole system HAS TO BE CHANGED. AWFUL. AWFUL. AWFUL.

My mom had two stints in the rehab facility, and everyone was wonderful: nurses, aids, therapists, front desk, finance director, etc. They took wonderful care of her, answered all of my questions, and always kept me informed of her care plans. Not to mention, everyone was so friendly and supportive. I highly recommend them for rehab.
