norwell nursing home sucks!! They do not take care of their patients. Food is never on time and is served sloppily. thrown together not nutritious. patients allowed to just sit on floor in front of nurses station. visitors have to step over them (not safe) not all patients allowed to go to garden or participate in activities. I would not leave my dog here!!1

This is a facility that you need to go in and tour staff is pleasant and very caring. The building is a bit out dated and could use some updates, but the most important is the success my father had during his rehab stay.

Thank you to all the staff at Golden Living OakHill

It's an over all good place. All staff is friendly and helpful. Only issue I have is with the dietary department, there's room for improvements. The rules and policy's about unmonitored outings, we shouldn't have adults who are mentally and physically able to get permission from a second party. If our doctor says we're capable to function on our own we shouldn't need assistance from others.

One star is all I give this place. My mother is staying here while undergoing cancer treatments and the care she is receiving is deplorable. We have had three meetings so far with management on the neglect of mom's care and was promised it would be addressed and corrected. We have a large family and one of us is usually there with her. Thank goodness we are. We have gone in to visit her and found her in a bloody mess and we have been told by three of her roommates how the nursing staff has treated mom badly. Mom has told us

"She does not feel safe there." What I would like to know is if these nursing staff don't like their job that much and they are NOT doing their job then they need to be fired or severely reprimanded. What is it going to take for her to receive good care? I am extremely concerned. Kelly Lopes

My 90 year old Uncle became a patient at Kindred Transitional Care/Forest View Nursing Home in mid November of 2013. When he arrived there he was extremely fragile and unable to even stand up after a hospital stay. After a six week stay and constant high quality care and physical and occupational therapy he has returned to his own home! I did not think this was even possible when he first got there. The staff was compassionate and attentive to him. We are grateful for all the good care he received.

The place is dirty. The food was unappetizing & unhealthy. Who would feed the elderly salami for supper? Honestly! The staff was nasty to my mom & to my family. They did not keep us informed & I finally had to threaten them with a lawsuit to get my mom moved to a better facility. I know several other people who have had similar experiences. My advice is to stay far away from Golden Living Center!

Some very good people providing quality care with attention to resident preferences.

A relative was in the rehab unit. Many of the people were very nice, but overall the care and quality of services was marginal. The facility itself is outdated and drab. They definitely do not address the "whole" patient, just the specific issue for admission. Limited activities for the patients and residents. The physician sevice was poor and at most times non-existent. The patient decompensated while a patient and ended up back in an acute care hospital in worse condition then when he ws first admitted

When it became time to admit that my father needed to be in a nursing facility Forest View was the only place I felt comfortable knowing he would receive quality care.

Throughout the years my father has been in and out of rehabilitations in MANY different facilities. I can say that some of them horrified me and others were ok for short term but would not consider for long term. The first time he went to Forest view I was very impressed with the surroundings and the friendliness of the staff. They kept me well informed as to my father’s progression in his treatment. He is not the easiest person to get along with however; the staff always treated him with respect and kindness always.

When it got to the point that he could no longer live on his own, this was the only place I knew that could handle his needs and personality. Everyone from nursing to cleaning staff do an outstanding job with him and I can't speak more highly of his social worker. They always keep me in the loop with all that is going on with him whether it is bad or good. The atmosphere does not feel like your average nursing facility, it feels more like an extended home. Everyone knows the patients name and will take the time to say "hello, how are you doing?" They respond the same way to family members. My father has been there for over two years now and it gives me great comfort to know that he is in a safe and nurturing environment.

Norwell Knoll must be the best kept secret in Massachusetts. Its consistency of care, staff and management provide a stable environment to all, specially to the residents. The quality of care is exceptional, the staff genuinly seem to care about their residents and seem to like their jobs and where they work.

My mother was placed today in this nursing home.

When I arrived her room was ice cold. I went to the nursing station and had three conerns:

1. the room was cold: I was told someone would be down to adjust the a/c. I stayed over an hour. No one every came.

2. My mother needed a bedpan. Waited more than 30 minutes….no one came. When I went to the desk to ask that my mother be changed, was give an icy stare and told that she would just have to wait, and that the aide had 12 patients to take care of.

3. Asked then nurse if there was a policy about what time TV's got turned off. Was told my brother had been given all the policies information earlier and that I should ask him. Nurse actually refused to answer the question!

4. Nurse never got off her rear end the whole time I was there. Obviously resented being "bothered" in a patient's behalf.

I hope to God that his nurse was atypical of the staff and that she is not permanently assigned to my mother's wing. Her msg, loud and clear: GO AWAY AND DON'T BOTHER ME. I HAVE NO COMPASSION AND DON'T CARE HOW YOUR MOTHER FEELS. I hope she very soon finds herself incapacitated and in a similar condition to my mother. Wish she had the imagination to wonder what it feels like to be in that situation. May she soon find out.

I have visited lovedones in several nursing homes. This is the worst I've seen. The staff is downright unpleasant & unhelpful. My mom's room is dirty oftentimes. I wouldn't put my worst enemy here.

Great Home, second only to Royal in Braintree!

I would agree with the one-star rating. The care that my friend received at Life Care of Plymouth was far below what it should have been. The fluid retention that went rampant throughout his entire body was left virtually untreated to the point that he had Congestive Heart Failure and was admitted to the hospital. His fluid intake was not monitored, nor was his weight gain, on a regular basis. He continued with his PT and OT despite the fluid build-up in his lower extremities when he was in an upright position. And, lying flat on his back while in bed caused the fluid to build up around his lungs and heart. He was put in a no-win situation. Upon discharge from the hospital, he will be moving to another nursing/rehabilitation center. I would NOT recommend Life Care of Plymouth.

This place should be closed. My parent entered for some physical therapy and six weeks later had two trips to the emergency room, MRSA and pneumonia. Named should be changed from LifeCare to "NoCare". Appalling on every level.

This facility is a disgrace to the health care setting. The minute you walk in you can feel the tension and stress in the air because of how vicious and unkempt the place is. Besides having mice constantly running around, kitchen accessories were in disgusting shape. Coffee cups would be filled with sludge although claimed they're clean, food stuck to silverware and plates. Workers don't seem to help the dirt atmosphere with their lack of hand washing. And how staff treat each other are an absolute shame and disgrace, no way capable of having the right atmosphere to care for the patients. I thought team work was key in settings such as the health care, and at this facility it is nothing but competition, gossip, back-stabbing, and unneccessary write-ups. This place surprises me that it's still open! If you love your family, DO NOT send them here.
