Visited 10/18 found residents in dining room with uncooked, inedible food. No staff to help with difficulty with food or with drinks! Supervisor notified and showed no concern.Air circulation little or none....stuffy! Having difficulty giving one star!!
My mom was admitted to rehab after a hip replacement surgery. 23 days later (and $11,000+ of charges to Medicare), she was discharged. The very next day after her discharge, she collapsed as her legs could not hold her weight and required a second hip surgery. If the objective of the rehab was to restore her ability to stand, than this was a failure. In addition, the facility did not follow protocol to issue a NMOC before her coverage ended as prescribed by Medicare.
Very pleasant after few day adjustment thank to all staff feeling home setting special thanks to 1 special lady that's in charge and will go out of her way to make you comfortable
Deer Creek of Wimberley has been a home away from home for my mom for the last year. Prior to this, she had stayed at Deer Creek for therapy, several times. My father had stayed at Deer Creek after a broken hip and later with other medical issues. All this to say that our family has spent a lot of time here through the years. Whenever I have had a concern or question, they have promptly helped. Bo, who is head of therapy, has been a Godsend. She is knowledgeable, professional, and caring, as are the other therapists. The staff of nurses and care attendants meet my mom's needs with gentleness and promptness. The director of Deer Creek, is one of the most caring people I know. She greets my mom and I with hugs, and always asks if there is anything we need or anything she can do to help. It's a hard decision, as to where we let our loved ones stay for therapy, or for a residence, but the staff at Deer Creek of Wimberley has proven over and over that they are professional and caring, which are the two things that I want for my mom. My mom has gained weight, is stronger, is involved in the many daily activities available, and simply put, is flourishing. Deer Creek has been a blessing to my mom and to our family.
I needed Physical Therapy for my bilateral knee pain, started with Deer Creeks phenomenal Therapy team! Erica was very thorough, empathetic. I chose the right place to do my Therapy. Very pleased
My sister spent the last 10 1/2 months of her life at Deer Creek of Wimberley. Having had my fair share of experience with immediate family death (this is the 5th in 5 years), trust when i say that I found the staff at this facility to be an engaged and caring group of people. My sister connected and had a great group of resident friends. Plenty of activities were scheduled to take advantage of, or not.My frustration is with our government and insurance companies hamstringing our medical community. We have an opioid epidemic due to those that abuse them, making it so bloody difficult for the elderly that truly need them due to extreme pain and nearing the end of their life. In the case of my sister, she was not in hospice because she went so quickly at the end. Just grateful for having found Deer Creek at Wimberley and the loving care they gave my sister and me.
My husband was at Deer Creek Twice this year for Rehab after hospital stays. He was treated very well, the staff nursing is compassionate and and the therapy staff fantastic.
When I was visited in the hospital by the marketing woman who draws this absolutly wondrful picturest setting out in the kountry and away from the city life, it sounded like a dream resort and a piece of naturalistic heaven. ,But believe me this place is horrific from day 1.Several times I ate my meals sitting in my own feces. I even had to wait several times for 3 or 4 hours to get cleaned up. The nurses aides are over worked, under paid and try to do the best they can. 6 out of 10 of the nurses aides gave myself wonderful care the other 4 were noncaring and would walk by a call light multiple times before answering it.The nurses again for the most part are prompt and courteous.Do not expect them to do much more than pass meds or do blood sugar tests because only a few of the nurses will answer a call light and then they will tell the nurses aides to do it no matter how busey the aides are.Management is a absolute joke and a poor joke at that. The administrator M.J. And the Director of Nursing ROY, ARE POOR EXCUSES FOR HUMAN BEINGS. The D.O.N. Roy is supposed to be an ex-marine, well of all my years working as a nurse I never met a marine that was about as useless as teets on a bull. He makes his mind up by reading reports instead of looking into the facts and asking questions. They will say at Deer Creek,"if you have any problems let them know". What they are really saying is, keep quiet, fly under their radar and we won't transfer you to some facility far away from driends and family.My advice from a residents point of view is pretty clear... STAY AS FAR AWAY AS POSSIBLE from this place. If you do need help and want to complain to the ombudsman thinking they will help? Forget it! All they do is come by 5-7 days after you contact them and then all the ombudsman will do is pacify you appear to be caring whenin reality they would not lift a finger. This inustry is corrupt, no wonder nursing homes in Texas overall got an F rating by the Federal gov.P.S. The food is not bad tasting just make sure you get your food early before they run out. Also do not waste your time making out a list of food dislikes because the only thing that will happen to it is it will get used to light the pilot light on the gas cooking equipment, none of them can read.
