I am an Elder Law Attorney in Charlottesville and serve a wide area. Among other things, I am an advocate for patients and residents in Long Term Care. For years, I have had patients and residents at Monroe health and Rehab. Like all LTC facilities, Monroe has always faced tremendous challenges in delivering all the care. Shortstaffing is a chronic problem that is the fault of CORPORATE, for profit owners. But Monroe in Charlottesville does it. And they do it WELL. Despite all the steep challenges they face. They are caring, kind and professional. I've had several clients or wards placed there for whom I am the designated decision maker. I attend care plan meetings on their behalf. I have always been thrilled to be able to work with Monroe. Special shout outs to: Director of Social Work, Emiko Rugumayo, RN Jacob Opuko, RN on unit 2, Marlo Perkins-Harris, RN Unit 3 (best dementia care for hundreds of miles!), Zelda Magruder -- caregiver EXTRAORDINAIRE, Dr. Jonathan Evans, medical director, Mark Morris, E.D. Tammy Desper, Business Office Manager and the BOMB DIGGITY OF BOMBS, Luv-kay Berkley, Director of Nursing who keeps it all humming. I'm leaving out many of the amazing team at Monroe. But you get the idea. Take it from me. I know nursing homes. Good and bad. Monroe is the good.
Good place to work. Great DON love 💘
My father was transported from UVA hospital Wednesday March 24th, 2021 and was taken to Monroe around 3/4pm that evening. He wasn't going to be there long, just long enough to recover and then come back home. We were told that we could speak with him any time (due to COVID we couldn't visit for 2 weeks). We called multiple times Wednesday 24th up to Friday the 26th, and never got to speak with my father. Each time we called we were told he is in the middle of eating we will call you back in an hour (we never got a call back); or he had a bad night he is sleeping now call back (we would and it would be another reason why we couldn't speak with my father). The last time I called to speak with my father Friday evening; I was asked to call back because he was eating and I said absolutely NOT and said if my father is awake I need to speak with my father and NURSE GLADYS (whom apparently don't like her job and needs to find a new profession) very rudely told me to hold on and then I heard her say and I quote "Oh my God can you go get your patient Robinson somebody wants to speak with him". Long story short I still did not get to speak with my father at that time they claimed that he refused to come to the phone; I said take the phone to him and they said this is the front desk phone we do not have a cordless phone. This was totally unacceptable. I called my sister who called Dr. Evans (I believe was his name) he was at home this doctor left his home and went to Monroe and went to my fathers room and FaceTime from his phone with my family so we could speak with my father. My father said to us and I quote "get me out of here these people not treating me right". We were in Charlottesville by 9am the next morning which was Saturday March 27th, and took my father home. They had no clue were half of his belongings were, he didn't have his eyeglasses and no one knew where they were, his portable CD player and headphones were also no where to be found, and again no one knew where my fathers items were. After 10 to 15 minutes of them looking for his belongings, they said oh he threw his CD player and it broke, I said ok fine show me the incident report.....no one could show me a report because it was never written up. The lady at the front desk gave me a complaint form, I wrote up my complaint using the front and the back of the paper and left my name and number; I was told that someone would be calling me to discuss my complaint form...today is Tuesday April 13, 2021...no one has called me. I waited to write this review , thinking that I would hear from management at Monroe Health and Rehabilitation Center....no one has called me to discuss my fathers stay there. This is really sad. When you have health care workers ( I can't say health care professionals) because there was nothing professional about what my family received from Monroe. Fortunately my father has a loving family that sees him for the KING that he is and demands that from anyone that is caring for him. What's unfortunate is the fact that this facility has long term patients there whose family has turned them over to the health care workers (not professionals) that are there to get a check and they have no love, compassion, patience, hope or understanding for these patients and they treat them any kind of way. IT IS NOT OKAY!!!! My heart goes out to these patients and I pray that God covers them while they are there. I will end with this Thank You to Dr. Evans for your care, assistance, and kind words throughout this ordeal. Thank You to Linda (front desk) we appreciate your assistance Saturday morning. I would love the opportunity still, to speak with management!!!
I have enjoyed the Fine Rehab staff! Great food.My only complaint is the DON! Ms. Berkeley has made my stay here at your nice facility a nightmare! That is the most hate filled person I have ever met! She is not interested in helping people, she thrives off making them miserable!Wake up Monroe! Get rid of this Albatross!
It's awfully funny that every good review on here are from employees. My husband was here for almost two years not only did they throw my husband out with no where to go with no notice stating he didn't need that level of care anymore but they have nurses stealing meds in here just about every week and no one is doing nothing about it!! The food was terrible there were days that the tray they brought into my husband's room you couldn't even tell what it was. This place has so many tags from State (which you can look up online everything against this facility) they need to be shut down. Please if your considering taking a loved one here evaluate all your options I would hate for something like this to happen to someone else because like my husband says you cannot put an animal out in the street without being charged for animal cruelty but they can put a human being out in the cold with no where to go!!
I recently joined Monroe Health and Rehab as the Human Resources Manager. Having worked in the health care industry for several years, I saw this facility has truly worked together as a team, implementing new policies, working together to get the job done to provide excellent care to the residents. Looking forward to being a part of the growth and development of Monroe Health and Rehab.
Visited recently - disgusting, crumbling, social workers housed in a closet with barely enough room to open a door. How do people live here? Horrible conditions and should be shut down. Check out all the violations on Medicare.gov - over 200k in fines. Thank goodness we didn’t send my Father here.
Visited this facility about two years ago and at that time I was not impressed. At the urging of Mom’s PCP, I participated in an ‘open-house’ type event recently at Monroe Health & Rehab. To say that there have been ‘some’ changes is quite the understatement! The atmosphere is cleaner, livelier, with considerably more staff at hand. I feel that my questions were taken seriously, and that the Management team has made real strides towards the type of transparency that allows family members to feel as though they continue to be a valuable part of their loved one’s care team. Needless to say, my mother is now one of their newest residents. Kudos to those who have really put the effort in to turn this place around—rather than just tacking up an ‘under new management’ sign.
This facility is a great place to work the leaders here work with you and help you with whatever you need i love my job although it’s challenging sometimes it’s rewarding everyday it’s been a great experience working here and I’m honored to be an employee!
Its interesting
The staff are so helpful and courteous to my family members needs.
The staff at this facility are very friendly and makes resident care their number one priority. They also go above and beyond to ensure resident safety.
Excellent place to work. Great benefits and continuing education opportunities.
Great family atmosphere. Awesome team in every department.
This facility has many new policies being implemented to provide excellent care; the building is receiving new decor but more importantly our staff has improved with no agency in the building and we have longevity with care teams that are motivated to provide the care our residents deserve! Come see us!
Great place to work, flexibility
