Forest Hills of DC in Washington, DC
4.6

My sister has lived at Forest Hills in the Health Care Center for a while. Before the pandemic, they had wonderful activities as well as great nursing care. In the pandemic they have done an incredible job to keep everyone safe, to figure out ways to have safe activities and/or virtual or safe visitation zones (following CDC guidelines). The staff is working under challenging circumstances and they continue to be kind, patient and deliver high quality care. We are so very grateful my sister can live in such a great facility.

Be active and present in your family member's care. I observed that the residents whose family was not present tended to be left alone quite a bit. Issues seemed not to stem from lack of management, but because the staff were spread very thin. There were some staff who tried to do their best. And then there were some who perhaps should have been let go for lack of attention and courteousness but could not be let go because the facility was so short-staffed. We found one of the attendants asleep in our loved one's chair. There were numerous instances of his clothes going missing. He came in with three coats and left with one. They told us they looked for the missing items, but they never did come up with them. The way that they treated our family was inconsistent. They were friendly to some of us and not to others. Again, there was variation depending on the workers. Some were very friendly and helpful and would go the extra mile to assist. And then there were some that were there to do just the bare minimum. I understand that issues with staffing are a challenge nationwide currently, be we were paying for a service we feel we did not receive.

Morningside House of St Charles in Waldorf, MD

I would put my dad in Morningside again. The staff is very friendly and helpful. They keep me informed about any issues or medical problems. We picked this community because, of the cleanliness, price and it was closer to where I live. There were others closer but they were not clean or the price was much higher.
