Food is crap! Pork and beans / brown looking hot dogs. I would not recommend this place. Rapid therapy No.

My father came in after hospitalization barely being able to walk. They worked him hard, sometime over 2 hours of PT a day. After a week, my father left walking, using a cane. Well done!

Former employee. Excellent care for patients and their support friends and families. Clean, updated, nice amenities. Their Rapid Recovery Unit is beautiful with an abundant amount of private rooms.  The administrator takes pride in overseeing every aspect of care and the staff shows a tremendous level of care and empathy for their patients and families.  I would highly recommend Wilton Manors Rehab for all of your hospital recovery needs.

My 80 year old dad ended up here after open heart surgery and a pacemaker. Its hard to rate a place like this not having something else to compare it with so ill notate what i saw. As far as the staff at all levels they were informative and efficient from housekeeping to nursing to social workers. They made accomodations for dad to see our dog on one of our visits. My sister and I always were clear about our ingnorance on this subject and they would take their time with us and explain as well as they could and often bring in some staff member that might be an expert in that part of our dads care. We could visit 24/7 with no notice. At the end of the day it is a rehab/nursing home and its residents are at difficult moments in their lives and at different stages of severe illness or injury. But i feel they gave my dad the best care possible and helped us understand the complexities of this type nursing. Thanks

My 86  year old mom fell and fractured her pelvis two weeks ago.   After two nights in the hospital she was admitted to WMHR.  The hospital Case Worker gave me a list of places to research and choose from, and in the chaos I called this facility--on a Saturday night-- and spoke with a very caring and dynamic individual(Jeff) who immediately made me feel encouraged.  I drove directly up to Fort Lauderdale, at 8pm, where Jeff  gave me a Grand Tour and delineated protocols.  He apprised me of the level of education the Physical Therapists (and O.T.'s, etc.) have (highest), as well as the state of the art equipment, including a gravity-free apparatus used for learning to walk again, which suspends the pressure and, thereby, the pain associated with walking on a fracture.  Considering the excruciating pain associated with a fractured pelvis in merely rolling from side to side in using a bedpan, changing sheets, clothing, etc. , my mom has progressed beyond what we could have imagined.  In her unknown journey back to wholeness, the CNA's, LPN's, nurses and other professionals have demonstrated genuine care while taking her through the necessary, mundane daily activities.  And this is a VERY personal type of care.  The food is excellent.  Lean protein, tasty vegetables, homemade soups and a flexible menu.  They take pride in and pour their hearts into making the food, and it sows.  Both visually and to the taste buds!  Make sure you meet Stevie Joe, the Chef with passion, plus!  They have a hair salon with wonderful Beverly, to wash hair and provide many services on Saturdays-- at very reasonable prices.  And her heart is fully in her job!    For their extreme and genuine care I would like to acknowledge Jeff, Athlyn Coombs, Marie L., Talibert, Yanique H. Ernistine, Michelle, Physical Therapist, Linda, Fitz, Colleen and the dietician, whose name I forgot.  Oh yes, James, a resident from the Vietnam war nd a victim of Agent Orange who tragically lost both feet, wholeheartedly works to assist patients with filling out and turning the Meal Choice Forms.  You should come in just to meet him!      Please be confident that your mom or dad are in great hands, here... truly!Where would we be without people to help us go to the bathroom?  It is not a glamorous job...but, providing dignity and care in this personal capacity is of the utmost importance and this staff rates all 5's!  Robin Alexander  Amy Alexanderc/o Rosemary Alexander

I ended up in this facility following a double knee replacement. I had heard about it through a recommendation by a friend that worked there.  I visited before surgery and, naturally, they were all very nice.  They promised me that I would be given a private room, they said the food was good and that if I didn't like it, I could go to the "Bistro" down the hall.  They said I would have the same physical therapist every day, for continuity of care.  They said a lot of things.The actual experience was somewhat different.  I was put in a semi-private room with a roommate that didn't speak English.  Okay, I get this is So. FL., so that wasn't a really big deal.   I took myself to the bathroom, since help was not rapidly forthcoming, in fact, they didn't show up at all.  The floor was filthy, especially around the toilet.  I did complain to a manager and at least got that cleaned up.  The food was totally inedible if you were less than 120, had teeth and taste buds. Everything was pureed and without seasoning. The touted "Bistro" was at a substantial charge.  I didn't eat anything for the entire length of my stay.The next day, I was moved to a private room.  The cleanliness factor was the same.  If I would put on my call light for help, I generally ended up helping myself.  I had to do my bath, balancing on my walker without any assistance, not easy on two knees with drains in them.  It was exceedingly painful and it's a wonder that I didn't do permanent damage. The first therapist was actually pretty good, but I only had him for one day.  The next day it changed, one in the morning and another one in the afternoon.  And the next day there was a different one.  I've had a lot of therapy and as PTs go, I can give them a rousing "average."  The 3rd night, there were a couple of GIANT cockroaches in my room.  The biggest I'd ever seen.  I'll tolerate a lot of things, but cockroaches aren't one of them.  This was supposed to be a health facility!  It was a great source of amusement to the staff, who said they were just little "palmetto bugs."  The body of one of them was a good two inches.  They could put her in a hat and call her Matilda, but I know a huge cockroach when I see one.  They refused to do anything.  I sat up in the chair in the hall all night.  With no sleep, the pain was magnified considerably.  I told them that all I needed was to get out, they just laughed at me and told me I couldn't take care of myself.  I pointed out that that was all I'd done since I'd been there.  Not to mention that I had a wonderful husband and daughter at home.  They said that I would have to show them that I could walk the length of the hallway without my walker.  So I did.  It was incredibly stupid, my surgeon would have served their heads on a cracker, but I was desperate to get out.  If I hadn't had a friend working there, they would have found themselves in litigation and quite possibly without a license because of the number of standards violations.  I finally talked the doctor into letting me go home.  The social worker told me that they would arrange for my at home physical therapy.  I got home that afternoon and tried to track down the therapist.  They had made no arrangements.  I was home without therapy for over a week before we could get it put together on our own.  "Luckily," this was not my first rodeo, orthopedically speaking.  I put myself on my own rehab program and recovered that way.If you're looking for a place for surgical rehab, I can tell you unequivocally, this isn't where you want to go.  NO, NO, NO!!!!

I went to go give my grandparent extra clothes on Sunday 9/13. They supposedly have no visitation during the pandemic so we walked to the front door and called like the instructions on the door said to. Rang the door bell, knocked. No answer. No one can to the door until the alarm was set off. We stood for 7 minutes before a girl walked to the door after someone walked past without acknowledging our presence. She stood there for a couple seconds, then walked away without saying anything. So we tried the door again and IT OPENED. No front desk personnel, NO SECURITY. We walked up to a woman looking at us from down the hall watching us trying to figure out where my grandparent's room was. She took our temperature and told us where the wing was that we could find the room in. She asked us if anyone was at the front when we walked in and we said no, THEN she took the temperatures.🤔 We hurried to our grandparent's room, seeing the awful condition of the building, the ill-prepared awful smelling food, Grown men who cannot care for themselves on their FUTONS in their underwear. These are humans and they have dignity 😔 The different smells of food and urine and Lord knows what else had my gag reflexes fighting 🤢 We find my grandparent in pain and confused without proper positioning for an 80 YEAR-OLD with a BROKEN RIB. My grandparent is lucid and witty but whatever meds they gave her had her hallucinating! Finally 2 nurses came in telling us we couldn't be in here and asking us how we got in. I ignored them and tried to tend to my grandparent before I saw 6 women telling us we have to go. Why is there no MALE SECURITY? WHY CAN ANYONE BE ALLOWED IN WITHOUT AN ESCORT? Why is it SO STINKY, MOLDY, AND IMPROPERLY KEPT? WHY DOES THE STAFF SEEM TO NOT GIVE A DAMN? TEAR IT DOWN AND ERECTED A REAL EXCUSE FOR A REHAB HOME. Grandparent is getting out as soon as Monday hits because it cannot be done today unfortunately. If you love your grandparents. NEVER PUT THEM HERE!

My mother entered the rehab section of Wilton Manors after a hospitalization. Prior to her hospitalization, she was mobile with a rolling three wheeled walker and was for the most part, independently functioning in her apartment in an Independent Living adult living community. The message on the recording on the answering machine stresses that they strive to return their clients to their formal level of function if not better. I found this to be very interesting because it was at least four weeks before a single person on the therapeutic side of the facility contacted me to discuss a "care plan". Therefore, they had no idea what her previous level of function was.It was four weeks into her stay that the admission department finally emailed me the admission paperwork. It was the last week of her stay that a Dr. spoke with me about signing a DNR and my oral authorization to withhold CPR, etc. was taken over the phone. However, I was advised that I needed to pick up and sign the form the next time I visited. I visited every day and I did walk down to the nursing office at least twice to ask for it, and no one could find it. However, the day before my poor mother was discharged, the nursing supervisor called me to chastise me for not signing it. At that point, it was decided that I would sign it when she was discharged. However, when she was discharged, there was no such paperwork provided. They could not get my mother out of the door fast enough.There also were big issues getting the discharge paperwork to the assisted living my mother was moving into. It was requested days in advance but apparently, only the first page of the fax came in. When the Assisted living called to inquire, their calls were not returned. I finally ended up hand delivering the paperwork myself which led to a delay in my mother getting her regular meds set up at the assisted living. This is what I was trying to prevent. Follow-up phone calls were not successful but in the end I had to hand carry the paperwork to the assisted living. All of this is evidence in my opinion of poor communication and administration, but is nothing compared to the much more serious issue.That is, the nurses did not listen to and respond to my concerns as a loving daughter who knew her mother much better than they did. On a previous occasion several weeks earlier, I had reported to the nursing staff that my mother was mentally altered and I suspected she had a UTI. I spoke to three different nurses on three shifts. It was over the weekend. Finally on Monday I reached the nursing supervision and she then went in a looked at my mother herself, contacted the Dr. and my mother went to the ER with a UTI and came back with a Foley catheter.We proceeded with the discharge because it was clear they were not interested in listening to me. My mother went back into the hospital just over 24 hours later, never to recover. Her "raging" UTI turned into Sepsis and then she caught Covid in the hospital and she died. If she had gotten treatment sooner, the results may have been very different. I blame myself for leaving her at Wilton Manors, I thought we were doing the right thing, but it was not. I will be trying to forgive myself for this for the rest of my life.

Sometimes you have the fortune of discovering or experiencing something that is simply better than everything else. Without hesitation I can say that Wilton Manors Health & Rehabilitation Center is truly superior to the alternatives in the local market. You will not find a better establishment for your loved one. Can't thank the Administrative Team enough for such a pleasant experience.
