Valentine’s Day Party

I chose MediLodge of Hillman, because I have been here before and had a great stay. All of the staff here is amazing, especially the nurses and CNAs. If you ever need to go to a nursing facility, MediLodge of Hillman is definitely the place to pick!

I chose MediLodge of Hillman because I had broken some bones and needed therapy. Every department has stood out to me; they are all great at what they do. All the staff members have made me feel like family, and I am going to miss them all! I have been crying all day, because I am so happy to be going home, but so sad to be leaving here. I want to let Toni, CNA, know she gives great showers and I appreciate that she always made sure I matched and looked good. The nurse, Suzie, has come to my rescue many times and has made my stay so much easier. The nurse, Stefanie, is fantastic. You can just tell she loves everybody here. The nurse, Velinda, did a great job teaching me how to use my nebulizer. She has made me feel confident about going home and being able to do it on my own. And Dr. Dargis always has a sweet personality every time he sees me. All of Housekeeping keeps this building looking clean and taken care of at all times. Thank you, everyone, for everything you have done for me!

My wife chose MediLodge of Hillman as the place for me to recover because of location, but mostly because of the tour Karen F gave her.  The atmosphere is very homelike in this facility, and that’s the way it should be.  The scenery out of my window and the setting of nature here is perfect. The cleanliness of this facility is beyond excellent.  As a matter of fact, I think it is the cleanest facility I’ve ever seen, and I’ve been in many facilities as a visitor and even a staff member.  My laundry was always delivered in a timely manner.  I would give them my clothes to be washed, and by the next day they would be hung in my closet or folded in my drawer.

Every person has stood out to me and treated me extremely well.  I’ve only been here a little more than a month, and I feel like I’m leaving my family.

I’m very happy to be going home, but it does make me a little sad to be leaving here and not seeing everyone every day.  The Therapy Department was above and beyond what I expected.  I am grateful for the patience they had with me, and their consideration for my discomfort and pain.  I never expected to recover the way I have, and I have MediLodge of Hillman to thank for that!!!

I am overwhelmed by the fantastic, caring, compassionate service I have received here at MediLodge of Hillman.  Every staff member has been wonderful to me.

I chose MediLodge of Hillman for myself because I've been here in the past and it was a fantastic stay. Everyone here is so great, and I live across the road and cannot wait for springtime to come so that I can walk over and visit everyone!  

I really enjoyed the private rooms. I was here last year when there were more people, and it seems a lot roomier and more comfortable this time. I even went and sat out on the couches by the nurse's station. I will definitely be back for another stay.

When arriving at MediLodge of Hillman, it was one of the lowest times of my life. I was unable to sit up without a brace on and needed assistance. I was totally dependent on others to do the smallest task. Everyone from all departments (Housekeeping, Dietary, Nursing, Therapy, and Administration) all addressed me by my name and was kind and helpful at all times. I truly believe that by being treated with respect, like family, and treating my emotional health, made my recovery that much faster!

Everyone at MediLodge of Hillman has been great to me. It’s hard to pick one person that stands out, but there are a few who have. Toni, CNA, has an awesome personality. You can tell she is passionate about what she does and truly cares about her residents! Ellen and Kendall from the Therapy Department also stand out to me. Because of these ladies, I am so much stronger now. When I first got here, I would have to stop 3 or 4 times while coming down the hallway. Now, it is full steam ahead for me! I feel very confident about going home today. I’ve learned so much about myself while I’ve been here, and have such a positive outlook on life now! I want to thank everyone at MediLodge of Hillman for helping me through this journey and coming out on the other side, ready to conquer life!

Everybody is really friendly and everybody knows their jobs. I've never had a complaint here.
