I was a rehab patient several times in Hebrew Home. Staff, by and large was excellent. Five Stars From Me! Room spacious pt and OT staff were the best. Hebrew Home has a reputation for great pt and OT. Alyssa Parness OT. Was excellent, and very patient.. food was very good, too.
My mother recently began her rehabilitation at Hebrew Home of Greater Washington, and I have been genuinely impressed with the care she is receiving. The physical and occupational therapy teams are exceptional, patient, attentive, and deeply invested in helping their patients make real progress. The nursing staff show sincere compassion and take the time to ensure comfort and dignity, while the administrative staff are organized, communicative, and professional, which has made the entire process smoother for our family. I have noticed that many rehabilitation facilities send review requests for routine visits or short stays, which can make their online ratings look higher than the actual quality of care provided. A lot of these reviews focus on superficial details. If you want to understand how a facility truly performs, look at their state inspection reports and quality metrics. Hebrew Home of Greater Washington consistently scores well on both, which reflects the strong leadership, dedicated staff, and genuine commitment to patient recovery that I have seen firsthand. If you are looking for a rehabilitation center where therapists are actively engaged with their patients, families are kept informed, and care coordination is excellent, Hebrew Home stands out as one of the few that delivers substance over appearance.
It feels like they're trying to hold my mom hostage there for her money...She wants to be discharged and its her right to. The social worker with all the strange tattoos is very rude and I feel like she tries to intimidate me and my mom into her staying there.My mom has told the her she wants to leave,my mom has her own place where she can be better cared for than being there where she still falls on there hard floors.
The Hebrew Home has asked me to delete the review, below, that I recently posted. It's true that once reading this review and beginning this morning, August 19, 2025, management has been responsive to the concerns I raised, although it has taken 3 days for that to happen. In addition, a bed has become available at the continuing care community where we live, and I have made arrangements to transfer my wife from the Hebrew Home tomorrow. I appreciate the good care my wife is now enjoying, but it has taken extraordinary efforts to make that happen. For the time being, I am leaving the review in place, as it may provide useful information to people considering placing family at the Hebrew Home. Do not send your loved ones to rehabilitation at the Hebrew Home on Montrose Rd. in Rockville, MD. Based on its good reputation, which the Hebrew Home promotes, and comments from friends who had relatives there in the past, I sent my wife there after she was hospitalized for 6 days following some serious falls and was unable to get a rehabilitation bed at the continuing care community where we live. She was transferred from the hospital to the Hebrew Home by ambulance, arriving around 6.00 pm on Saturday, August 16, 2025. I arrived at the Hebrew Home at 10.30 am the following morning (Sunday, August 17, 2025), and went to my wife’s room, 292 North. The room was dirty. The one chair, a recliner, was broken and tilting to the side. The phone was not working, so she had not been able to call me. The TV did not work. I rang for the nurse, who appeared 15 minutes later and told me a “maintenance order” for the phone and TV would be submitted and responded to on Monday or Tuesday. The bed was not made. Worse, my wife had been sitting in a wet diaper for two hours. I rang for the nurse again and asked her to please change the diaper. She told me she would send the aide to do it, and 25 minutes later an aide appeared to change her, leaving the soiled diaper in the trashcan in the room. Finally, unable to reach my wife because the phone in her room is not working, I called the Nurses’ Station for 292 North at 8.15 pm this evening. No one answered, and I was told to leave a message. I left a message saying I wanted to speak to my wife, giving her name and room number. I asked if she could be assisted to the phone so we could speak. My call was never returned. I understand it is a weekend and that help is hard to get. But if facilities are unable to provide appropriate care and accommodations on the weekends, they should not admit patients on weekends. Based on this experience, I strongly recommend that no one send a loved one to rehabilitation at the Hebrew Home.
I was recently a patient at the Hebrew rehab, and to be honest, My experience there was anything but wonderful. The nursing staff needs to be fired and replaced with individuals who can speak and understand English better. I am on a regimen of medications because of various chronic health conditions ,and I have to take my medicines at certain times so that they don’t interfere with one another. In the 12 days I was there, the medication nurses would constantly screw up my meds, giving them to me at the wrong time, causing me to lose my temper with them. The pharmacist thought I was on too many pain meds. I am also asthmatic and have to take my asthma med 2 times every 12 hours. In the last couple of days I was there, instead of giving me a full asthma cartridge, the stupid pharmacist sent back an empty cartridge twice, causing me to miss my evening dose of meds,.The second time was when I was checking out of the facility. The only bright aspect of the experience was the great physical and occupational therapy staff, as well as the social worker who was able to provide me with physical therapy services and a walker for me to use, once I got home. I would strongly discourage anyone from going there , and lastly some of the residents at the assisted living facility are mentally ill and should not allowed out without supervision. My husband was leaving from visiting me later that day and spoke to a gentleman who was walking his dog. My husband made a nice comment about the gentlemen’s dog and said that it was cute. My husband left and came back later to see me. When he was leaving at 8pm, his vehicle was surrounded by police officers because the gentleman with the dog called them and told them my hubby had two guns on his belt which he didn’t. The only things he carried on his belt was a flashlight and his iPhone. The police searched his truck and my husband reported the incident to the manager at the front desk. My husband and I feel as though the Hebrew Center is poorly run. I wrote an earlier review a few days ago after I was there because of the screwups, and was approached by one of the hire ups on the nursing or administrative staff and was asked to remove my comments and negative review of the facility. Even though supposedly the comments I had made about staff and getting my meds straightened were addressed, I still felt slightly threatened by it, which makes me think that they don’t like getting any negativity about their screwups. I am strongly recommending anyone who needs a physical rehab or assisted living place to avoid the Hebrew home.
