I couldn’t have asked for or expected better care, commitment, communication and professionalism for my loved one than they and I both received during the 3 months my loved stayed there until their death. I got to know many of the staff there and they were always open, friendly and went out of their way to accommodate the needs of my loved one’s care. I highly recommend to anyone searching for the right place for a family member to look no further than Hickory Creek at Columbus. I will remember the staff and the time spent there for the rest of my life. I’m very thankful and grateful for all the specialized care they provided.

Do not send your loved ones to this facility. I was placed at Hickory creek for rehab after a lengthy hospital stay. It was an absolute nightmare and I signed myself out the very first night. It was absolutely disgusting. There was filth all over the walls, in the bed remote, and not to mention feces trail on the floor outside my room. My elderly roommate was nonverbal and they brought her food in and gave her one bite then a few minutes later came and took her tray away without feeding her more. I was not given my medication and was told the hospital “never sent orders over”. I was left on oxygen when I had never been on it before. No one checked to see if I could come off of it. When family arrived to pick me up they asked the male nurse about the situations that happened and he said “it’s not the first time things like this have happened.” Overall a very horrible place to be and see elderly neglected. I will never recommend this facility.

I am very unhappy with this facility. It's hard enough placing a loved one in a nursing home with hope they will be taken care when you can't. It disgraces me to right this. My grandmother was admitted after a hospital stay. She is well of mind just need assistance walking. She called for assistance to use the bathroom. She waited 30 minutes to get attended too. She waited to long and had an accident. During all this she was reprimanded to her bad behavior. A called was then placed to the family. I just feel that the personal skills need to be worked on.

My stepdad had the privilege of being a resident at Hickory Creek at Columbus. I was so impressed with the staff and how they go above and beyond in every aspect of their care they provide. Not only did they give extraordinary medical treatment, they take pride in giving each resident a personalized experience. They have such a welcoming, home-like environment, exceptional home-style meals, and how they interact with their residents goes above and beyond! Thank you for making this such a positive experience for our family!

I have had several family members in this facility over the last 25 yrs. They have the most care and hard working staff. If any of my family has an issue and it is brought to the proper people they address those issues right away and get a resolution for it. Between my family being there for rehab to home or the ones that stayed long term we never had any issues about the care. The staff love their residents and keep them smiling. I never witness anyone that wasn’t happy about being there.
