Best nursing and rehabilitation center in the area! The staff are so warm and friendly. You can tell they really care about your loved one and put their heart and soul into the work they do. The environment is clean, and they have a robust PT/OT department and the activities department is constantly implementing creative ways to keep patients engaged and happy.
I can't express my gratitude enough to the staff at Dresher Hill. Thye have cared for my fiancé two times and both times they took excellent care of him. He was at Dresher from August 2024 to December 2024. He had recently had his leg amputated as well as a very large and extensive wound that he developed while at the hospital and that was allowed to deteriorate to the point that it was very serious and caused him to become septic. He also has Dialysis 3 days a week and is just overall a very clinically complex patient. Dresher made sure he got to Dialysis on time. They took care of his diabetes as well as his wounds. Dresher does an absolutely outstanding job at healing wounds, and they took on the challenge. He went home in December still with a wound but much improved and well on its way to healing. He did well for a time, but he unfortunately got sick again and I did not hesitate to have him get rehab at Dresher Hill. His goal this time was to walk out of Dresher Hill. Dresher Helped him get stronger, continued to treat his wound, which by the time he left was healed, and helped him get his first prosthetic. The rehab department was wonderful and they worked with him on walking and getting comfortable with the prosthetic. On July 3rd of 20cn25, he walked out of Dresher Hill. He continues to do well at home. In addition, every staff member in some way helped with his healing. The Nursing Department did such an excellent job taking care of all his needs which were many due to his numerous illnesses. He enjoyed the food (a lot of which is scratch made). Dresher was clean and odor free, The Activities Department would check in with him regularly, and overall, everyone was just very kind and accommodating to him. We would not hesitate to use Dresher Hill in the future. I felt comforted that I knew he was being well taken care of and that he was safe.
The worst of the worst!!!! Stay far away!!! My mother went there wound up on hospice care. She was supposed to be moved and brief checked every two hours. Only one nurse did this. The others had an excuse or pointed a finger at someone else. Nobody has compassion. Nobody cares. Director spoke to me and stunk of cigarettes smoke. After initial complaints, care got better, but then things got worse again. CNA said what’s the problem when it had been 4 hours since brief change- she’d dry- only to then see a BM when I asked her to open the brief and check. I feel as though I am asking for the world when I only want compassionate and good care for my mother.
This place might be great for long term care and assisted living but if your loved one is a short term stay and a dialysis patient I do not recommend this place. For Chase gave us a very short list of places that could transport by stretcher to and from dialysis, that transportation was poorly arranged by the home and poorly provided by the transport company. By the time my loved one went here he barely needed bed transport but we were not aware until we got him here that hair transport or self transport open up more options. They get most residents up and out of bed most days and where applicable provide PT and OT everyday with in depth exercises. Most of the staff is nice but all places like this staff some people with little compassion unfortunately it probably goes unreported because some residence have no family to advocate for them, we did have to file at least one complaint. While you sometimes smell a nursing home smell they were diligent about cleaning regularly. Surprisingly my loved enjoyed the food. Bottom line is I would not use this place for a patient who when leaving the hospital is on dialysis and able to walk with a walker.
My stepfather recently came here for rehab and decided to stay as a resident because he is happy with his care. This place is not fancy, but I've been to fancy rehabs and homes, and what Dresher Hill lacks in decor is made up in deep and loving care. In all the facilities I've visited, I've never met a more attentive staff, and not just to my stepfather. I've observed the staff interacting with everyone, and the level of attention they give to each client, from the business office to the nurses, is unmatched in my experience. Every request that both my stepfather and I have made has been handled quickly and efficiently, from hanging items in his room to completing the entry paperwork to providing strong emotional and physical support to my stepfather. Look past the institutional nature, if you can, and examine the institution itself—substance matters.
